This ranch chicken is made without breadcrumbs but is still super crispy and yummy. You don’t need flour or crackers for a crispy crust – just a nice mix of finely grated parmesan and cheddar which bubbles up in the oven and becomes beautifully crispy. That garlic really makes everything more magical in this baked ranch chicken. And you can easily skip the garlic, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

We’ve used butter for this recipe, because we love butter, but if you like, feel free to go ahead and swap it with olive oil. If you’d like to make it a one pan dinner, add some carrots, broccoli or cauliflower to the pan and bake everything off in one which makes this dinner even better and makes for easy clean up.

Steam some broccoli on the side, make a nice salad or better yet, try our Slow Cooker Cheddar Bacon Ranch Potatoes and you’ve got a simple, quick dinner for the family. The baking takes about 25 minutes so you have a delicious dinner in under 30 minutes. This entire recipe uses ingredients we usually have in our pantry. What can I serve with Baked Ranch Chicken? If you don’t have a ranch packet on hand, you could substitute with the following: 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, 1 teaspoon dried green onion, 1/1 teaspoon dried dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt. It really depends on the brand, but the most popular, Hidden Valley, contains vegetable oil, water, egg yolk, sugar, salt, dried garlic, dried onion, and few other ingredients. Often times we receive questions from readers wondering what ingredients are in a packet of dry ranch seasoning because they don’t have a ranch packet on hand but would still like to make this ranch chicken. What is in a packet of dry ranch seasoning? Either the dressing packet or the dip packet will work.

I like to use a Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning packet for this recipe. This baked ranch chicken is literally five ingredients – chicken, butter, ranch dressing mix, garlic and cheese.
