Creamy Ranch Chicken

Creamy Ranch Chicken

Prepare to transform simple ingredients into a dinner that's both comforting and sophisticated.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 packet ranch dressing mix
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper generously.
  2. Sear the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken on both sides until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Create the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the ranch dressing mix, sour cream, and chicken broth. Stir well to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the sauce is creamy.
  5. Add Cheese and Garnish: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the chicken and allow it to melt into the sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: This dish pairs beautifully with steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a light salad.
