RANCH CHEDDAR CHICKEN

I’ve made this several times & it is one of my favorite chicken recipes out there! After my first time cooking this particular dish I learned to cut WAAAAAAAY back on the ranch seasoning as it was too salty for mine and my family’s taste. Otherwise I follow the recipe as stated, except for being pretty generous with the amount of topping placed on each piece . I usually serve this with either steamed broccoli or roasted brussel sprouts & a rice side. The topping also goes well on pork chops!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 (1-ounce) package Ranch Seasoning and Salad Dressing Mix
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/3 cup Panko*
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

DIRECTIONS:

1. Frist Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9×13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
2. Next, In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, cheese, Ranch Seasoning and garlic.
3. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, to taste. 
4. Then Place chicken in a single layer onto the prepared baking dish and top with mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with Panko.

6. Then reaching an internal temperature of 175 degrees F, about 25-30 minutes.
