Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make seasoning mix with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Season chicken halves on both sides.
In a bowl or bag, toss seasoned chicken with dill pickle ranch dressing. Let marinate at least 10 minutes.
Mix ¾ cup Parmesan with breadcrumbs to make the crust.
Remove chicken from marinade, let excess drip off. Dredge in Parmesan-breadcrumb mix, press to coat.
Place chicken on baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan on top.
Bake 25–30 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Garnish with chopped dill and extra dressing.
Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Optional: For crispier crust, broil final 2–3 minutes, watching closely.
Notes
For best results, use pre-sliced chicken breasts and store-bought dill pickle ranch dressing for ease. Keep leftovers refrigerated up to 4 days or freeze for 2 months.
