BAKED RANCH CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream and 2 tablespoons of the ranch seasoning.
• Place the chicken breasts into the sour cream mixture and, using tongs or your hands, mix together until the chicken is completely coated.
• Cover and let the chicken marinate for at least an hour. If you can prepare this step in the morning or the night before.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Mix 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese in a medium bowl.
• Dip the marinated chicken breasts into the panko mixture and place on a sheet pan, or in a baking dish, coated with olive oil.
• Divide the remaining panko mixture between the chicken breasts.
• Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees when it's cooked completely.
• Serve with a salad, rice, or vegetables.
