SWEET CLUB CRACKER SNACKS
This is a fantastic, quick to prepare snack. You will love the combination of salty/sweet taste and the crunch of the almonds and browned crackers. I got the recipe from my friend after we tasted these snacks at her home. These crackers are really pleasing to the eye and will keep several days in a container with a tightly-fitting lid. They would also make a great Christmas gift in a decorative tin.

THE OMG OVEN "FRIED" CHICKEN
This is the OMG oven "fried" chicken, because every time you make it someone will say OMG this is delicious.......Seriously, the ingredients sound a little strange, but it is an awesome taste.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- 2. 2.In a large resealable ziplock bag, mix together all dry ingredients including spices.
- 3. Coat the chicken pieces with mayonnaise. Place chicken pieces in bag with bread crumb or cracker mixture and shake until well coated.
- 4. Place chicken pieces in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake for 40-45 minutes or until juices run clear. I personally don't place them on a baking pan, I place mine ona large cookie cooling rack that's placed on the baking pan....This allows the chicken to be cooked evenly all the way around, without the chance of the bottoms getting "soggy".
- 5. ***NOTE*** Depending on my mood and what flavor I'm looking for, I tend to change this up periodically to match what I'm looking for that day. I love the flavor that the Ritz crackers or Club crackers give to this dish, but I've also used crushed garlic croutons, italian bread crumbs, Panko, and normal bread crumbs with this. They all work great, and each give it it's own different flavor and personality. I've also been known to add in ranch dressing to the mayo to thin it rather than milk, and added into the bread crumbs some crushed "real" bacon bits to give it the bacon ranch flavor that I love. It's a very versitile recipe, so I fully support playing with it!

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are good options. You can also use a whole chicken, but you'll need to cut it into pieces.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you're cooking a lot of chicken, cook it in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan.
- Cook the chicken until it's cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
- Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook it just until it's cooked through.
- Use a good quality ranch dressing. The ranch dressing is a key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a brand that you like.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. This recipe goes well with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Club Cracker Ranch Chicken is a quick and easy recipe that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The chicken is coated in a flavorful mixture of club crackers, ranch dressing, and Parmesan cheese, then baked until it's cooked through.
