Ingredients
  

  • 4 piece Boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Ranch dressing
  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Melted butter

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F / 200°C and brush the chicken breasts with olive oil, then season with garlic powder and black pepper.
  2. Bake the chicken on a lined baking sheet for 20 minutes until cooked to 165°F / 74°C at the thickest part.
  3. Mix the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, and melted butter in a small bowl until combined.
  4. Spread 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing over each cooked chicken breast, then press the Parmesan mixture evenly on top.
  5. Broil on high for 2 to 3 minutes until the crust is golden and crisp, watching closely to prevent burning.
  6. Rest for 3 minutes before serving to let the juices settle and the crust firm up.
