Cheesy Ranch Chicken

Just a few simple ingredients for this flavorful chicken.

Cheesy Ranch Chicken

I know what you’re thinking…how much chicken do these people eat? Seriously? How much cheese can one family consume?

Here’s your answer:  alot. Yep, alot.

We love it!

Chicken. Cheese. And this one has a bit of ranch. #Yum

Here is what you need for this recipe and a few notes:

  • Boneless chicken breast: approx 1 1/4 lbs or 3-4 medium size breasts. Your average cooking time will be about 30 minutes, but, that could vary, depending on the size/thickness of your chicken breasts.
  • Ranch dressing: go with your favorite bottled version or homemade will work too!
  • Grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Shredded cheddar cheese.
  • A large, flat rimmed baking sheet
  • Foil and non stick cooking spray
  • It’s not required, but, adding your chicken under a preheated broiler gives the cheese a crispy texture. It only will take a few seconds..so, watch it carefully.

This Cheesy Ranch Chicken takes nearly zero effort in the prep department. You could toss it together after a long day and  have dinner on the table in 30 minutes.

The tangy ranch, the crunchy cheesy topping..you too will be a chicken and cheese family in no time flat.

 
Yield: 4 chicken breasts

I made this recipe in a slow cooker - 4 hr on low. Very good. BTW, my wife does not like parmesan, I am going to try sharp cheddar and mozzarella. Comments?

Hi Jeff- That's a great idea! I've never made this chicken in the crock pot, but, I will definitely be giving it a try. I like the mozzarella cheese idea or maybe a Monterrey Jack? I think they both would go great with the cheddar.

I doubt I'll bother trying this or any other recipe from you. Your incessant nagging pop-ups during the short time I tried to look at this recipe have pissed me off. I don't give a damn about you printing this as a comment. I said what I came to say.

Yes, "Irrelevent", I have ads on my site. No, I'm not going to apologize for them. This blog cost money to run and I'm not independently wealthy, so, you get the ads. Sorry you won't be trying the chicken..it's pretty delicious. :) Have a lovely day.
