Ingredients

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

For the Ranch Marinade:

  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing

  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tsp lemon juice

  • 1 tsp white vinegar

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

For the Parmesan Crust:

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese

  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing

  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise

  • Optional: 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs (for extra crunch)


Instructions

  • Marinate the Chicken: Mix all marinade ingredients in a bowl. Place chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or dish and pour marinade over. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.

  • Cook the Chicken: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Transfer to a baking dish.

  • Prepare the Parmesan Crust: In a small bowl, mix Parmesan, provolone, ranch, mayonnaise, and panko (if using) until combined.

  • Top and Bake: Spread a generous layer of the cheese mixture over each chicken breast. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F internally and the top is bubbly and lightly golden.

Notes

  • You can grill the chicken instead of pan-searing for a smokier flavor.

  • Add chopped herbs like parsley or thyme for freshness.

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
