Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 2 large boneless/skinless chicken breast
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • Salt/Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
Sauce
  • 10.5 oz. cream of chicken soup
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 cup sour cream at room temp
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 oz. packet Ranch seasoning mix

Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Method
 

  1. Slice the chicken into 2-3 thinner slices. Pound with a meat tenderizer if needed, the chicken will plump up more when cooked. Aim for ½ inch thick slices.
  2. Pat the chicken completely dry and sprinkle each side with Italian seasoning and salt/pepper. Brush one side of each piece with melted butter, make sure the butter isn’t too hot.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken in batches for 4-5 minutes per side, until a golden brown crust has developed. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add the sauce ingredients to the same skillet over medium heat. Stir until combined. Let it bubble gently and reduce for 5 minutes. Add the chicken and spoon the sauce on top.
  5. Cover the skillet partially and let the chicken heat through and absorb the flavors from the sauce, about 10 minutes.
  6. Optional: Serve with baked potatoes and spoon the sauce over each potato (it is so good that way)!

Notes

This creamy ranch chicken is excellent for a family meal or dinner party. Feel free to adjust the spice level by adding more or less of the Ranch seasoning mix. For an extra touch, pair it with baked potatoes or steamed vegetables.
