Baked Ranch Chicken Tenders
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast
  • 1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch salad dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 3/4 cup plain bread crumbs
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, place a generous amount of butter in the bottom of your 9x13-inch baking dish and allow it to soften within the preheating oven.
3
Slice your chicken breast into thin, even strips by cutting against the grain.
4
In a separate container, combine the contents of the ranch dressing mix packet with a small amount of water to create a liquid mixture.
5
In another container, whisk together an egg and milk until well combined.
6
Meanwhile, place the bread crumbs in a third container.
7
Using your hands or a spoon, coat each chicken strip with the ranch dressing mixture, followed by an egg-coated layer and finally a bread crumb-covered surface; arrange the coated chicken strips in the prepared baking dish.
8
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
9
Turn the chicken pieces over gently after 15 minutes, then continue baking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken reaches a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, approximately 15 minutes longer.

Finally, allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
