𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
Let’s get started the recipe:
- Supplies. In a medium bowl, mix ranch packet, bread crumbs & Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
- Boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Clean & rinse chicken. Cut each piece in half, the long way.
- Use a paper towel to pat chicken dry.
- Melt smart balance spread (or butter) in medium microwave bowl.
- Dip each piece of chicken into melted butter. Cover both sides.
- Then press each side of the chicken into the breading mix.
- Place in greased baking pan. Do this for each piece. I lined my baking dish with foil, which I sprayed with Pam to keep the chicken from sticking. And for easy clean up!
- I had lots of mix left over so I sprinkled the rest all over the top of the chicken. I also melted a little smarter balance & drizzled it over each piece.
- Now kick your feet up (or clean up the mess you made) & let the chicken cook for 45 minutes. WARNING: the kitchen is starting to smell really good!!!
- The finished dish! I was so excited to taste this best chicken ever that you can see where I cut a piece in the bottom left-hand
