Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- to taste salt and pepper
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- ⅓ cup ranch dressing
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup provolone cheese
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken and marinate it by mixing olive oil, ranch dressing, Worcestershire sauce, white vinegar, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a bowl. Pound chicken breasts to ½ inch thickness, season with salt and pepper, place in a resealable bag, pour the marinade, seal, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet, cover with foil to keep warm.
- Make the Parmesan crust by microwaving a bowl of chopped Parmesan, provolone cheese, and ranch dressing, stirring until melted. Fold in melted butter, garlic powder, and panko breadcrumbs.
- Preheat the broiler, spread the cheese mixture on top of the chicken, and broil for 3-4 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
- Serve hot on a platter with sides like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
Notes
- Allow chicken to marinate overnight for better flavor.
- Avoid moving chicken while searing to achieve a golden crust.
- The cheese mixture can be lumpy for texture.
- For oven-baking, preheat to 425°F.
- For a keto version, substitute panko with crushed pork rinds.
- This dish pairs well with garlic mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
