Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup ranch dressing
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp distilled vinegar
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, chopped
- 1/2 cup Provolone cheese, chopped
- 6 tbsp Buttermilk Ranch dressing
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Combine all marinade ingredients and whisk until smooth. Place chicken in a freezer bag, pound to 1/2 inch thick, season with salt and pepper, then add marinade. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a baking sheet and tent with foil.
- Preheat the oven to low broil (450°F).
- Mix Parmesan, Provolone, and Ranch dressing in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15-second intervals, stirring until melted. Spoon over each chicken breast.
- Combine melted butter, panko, and garlic powder. Sprinkle over cheese layer on each chicken breast.
- Broil for 3–4 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Mozzarella, Swiss, or Munster can substitute for provolone.
- Use crushed pork rinds instead of breadcrumbs for a keto version.
- Let cheese come to room temperature before melting for better consistency.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes from thawed.
