Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces chicken breasts Boneless, skinless preferred
  • 1 cup ranch dressing For coating the chicken
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For cooking
  • Salt and pepper to taste For seasoning
Optional Garnish
  • chopped herbs For garnish (e.g., parsley or dill)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cooking
  1. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  2. Pour ranch dressing over the chicken, reduce heat to low, and simmer for a few minutes until heated through.

Notes

For a healthier option, consider baking the chicken instead of pan-frying. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days and can be frozen for up to 3 months.
