Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it's ready once your prep is done.
Lightly grease a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent the chicken from sticking.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps the coating stick better and ensures even cooking.
Using a basting brush or a spoon, evenly spread the light sour cream over each chicken breast. Make sure to coat both sides thoroughly.
Place the bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Dredge each sour cream-coated chicken breast in the bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Coat both sides well.
Place the breaded chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are in a single layer and not overlapping to promote even cooking.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). The breading should be golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Oven Ranch Chicken with your favorite sides, such as a salad, steamed vegetables, or mashed potatoes.
Tips:
- For an extra crispy coating, double-dip the chicken by coating it in sour cream and bread crumbs twice.
- To ensure even cooking, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before coating them.
- Feel free to season the bread crumbs with additional spices like paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder for a more complex flavor.
- Use a cooking rack placed on a baking sheet to allow air to circulate around the chicken, ensuring even crispiness on all sides.
- Rest the chicken for a few minutes after baking to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring the meat stays juicy.
Oven Ranch Chicken is not only quick and easy to prepare but also offers a burst of flavor that will leave your taste buds satisfied. Serve it with fresh vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp salad for a complete and balanced meal. Enjoy this simple yet delicious recipe with your family and friends!
