Breaded Ranch Chicken

This is by far my families favorite breaded chicken recipe.   I found the recipe here but will post my alternative next time I make it again. :)

Recipe Ingredients:

• 4 chicken breasts, halved, OR 8-12 chicken breast tenders
• 1 packet dry ranch OR 1 packet dry Italian seasoning
• 3/4 cup crushed corn flakes OR crushed crackers OR breadcrumbs
• 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine OR olive oil for a healthier alternative

I told you this recipe is really flexible!

Bake at 350 for 40 minutes or until chicken is cooked.   I cubed my chicken last time and served it with my families favorite cheesy potatoes with the same bread crumbs on top.   It is by far the easiest recipe and yummiest chicken recipe I've made.   Hope you enjoy it like we do! Again I'll post this recipe again with my own little twist next time I make it and can take pictures.
