Time 1h15m

Yield 4

½ sleeve buttery round crackers, crushed
1 cup dry bread crumbs
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons butter, cut into 4 pats, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.
  • Mix crushed crackers, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, ranch dressing, salt, and pepper in a resealable 1-quart storage bag.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is golden brown on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
