Ingredients

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in a gallon bag, remove the air, and seal. Use a rolling pin or flat end of a meat tenderizer to pound it to about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 2

Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup ranch dressing, 3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp vinegar, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 Tbsp minced garlic and 1/2 tsp black pepper in a small bowl.

Step 3

Pour marinade into the bag with chicken. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to overnight.

Step 4

For the ranch spread, mix ¼ cup of grated Parmesan and ¼ cup ranch dressing. Set aside.

Step 5

For Parmesan topping, mix 1/2 cup panko, 1 tsp garlic salt, 1/3 cup grated Parmesan and 2 Tbsp melted butter. The crumbs should be evenly moistened.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 425° F. Lightly grease the dish and add 2 Tablespoons of water to the dish along with the chicken. Bake for 15-18 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165° F.

Step 7

Spread 2 Tbsp ranch dressing spread on each breast, then top with Parmesan topping.

Step 8

Place parmesan-topped chicken under the broiler in over until the parmesan crumb topping begins to turn light brown. Serve immediately.

Cook's Notes

Pan stove top method: Pan sear chicken breasts over medium-high heat in 2 Tbsp oil on both sides for 3 to 4 minutes in skillet – cast iron provides the best sear. Place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 400ºF for 10 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF.
