TEXAS RANCH CHICKEN

This is a baked chicken recipe I created as a single mother one night when the cupboard seemed bare. The kids love it, and have created their own variations. Variation: In place of dressing and mozzarella cheese, use sour cream and Cheddar cheese - slices or shredded.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken parts
1 ½ cups Ranch-style salad dressing
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the olive oil in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Arrange chicken in the dish, and cover with the dressing. It's best to place chicken pieces close together so that the cheese and the dressing do not burn on the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from heat, top with mozzarella cheese, and return to the oven. Continue cooking for about 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and lightly browned and the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven: This will ensure that the chicken has enough room to brown evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Use a well-seasoned skillet: This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Don't move the chicken around too much: Let the chicken brown undisturbed for a few minutes before flipping it.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken.

Conclusion:

Texas Ranch Chicken is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the ranch sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
