How to Make Baked Ranch Parmesan Chicken

  1. Marinate 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in 1 cup of your favorite ranch dressing for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
  2. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  3. In a shallow dish, combine 1 ½ cups bread crumbs, ½ cup grated parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried sage, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Mix well.
  4. Remove chicken breasts from the ranch dressing, allowing excess to drip off.
  5. Press each chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Place coated chicken breasts in a greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  9. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
