What’s in Ranch Parmesan Chicken?
This is a 5-ingredient recipe that can be made in under an hour, making it the perfect quick meal for busy nights when you don’t know what to cook. Are you ready, ranch lovers?
Panko Breadcrumbs: Make this chicken crispy and crunchy. Parmesan Cheese: Adds a great salty and umami flavor. Ranch Seasoning Mix: Who doesn’t love ranch?! Unsalted Butter: Helps the seasonings and breadcrumbs stick to the chicken. Chicken: I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but you could also use thighs.
Pro Tip: Make sure to pat the chicken dry before dredging it in the butter and breadcrumbs to help everything adhere!
Variations on Ranch Parmesan Crusted Chicken
You can use regular Italian breadcrumbs instead of Panko, or try keto breadcrumbs to make this dish keto-friendly. Feel free to swap the Parmesan for another hard cheese, such as Asiago, Pecorino Romano, or Grana Padano. In place of the ranch seasoning, feel free to use your favorite seasoning packet, such as Italian seasoning, chicken seasoning, or creole seasoning!
