Baked Ranch Chicken Breast

I’ve got something a little different this week a savory dinner recipe for Baked Ranch Chicken Breast. What I like about this recipe is that it’s easy, pretty quick and extremely tasty. Paired with a salad or veggie it makes for a quick weeknight dinner!

Baked Ranch Chicken Breast

Since chicken breast have a little bit of a wet surface even if you pat them dry, if you skipped the flour dip and went straight ahead to the egg wash the egg wash would fall right off. You could use several types of flour, such as coconut flour, almond flour or even chickpea flour.

Baked Ranch Chicken Breast

When you stick the floured chicken in the egg wash it creates a the perfect “glue” for the breadcrumbs that you’ll dip the chicken breast into next. If you would like to skip the egg you can use mayo or Dijon mustard in its place. And if you have the time you can let the breaded chicken rest in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes. This will give the coating a little extra time to adhere to the chicken and you won’t have to worry about your breading falling off of your chicken while devouring it!
