Description

A comforting dish featuring chicken breasts coated in dill pickle ranch dressing and Parmesan breadcrumbs, baked or air-fried to a golden crisp.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle ranch dressing
  • 1 cup parmesan breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or olive oil
  • (optional) a little extra vanilla
  • (optional) fresh butter
  • (optional) a pinch of smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. Coat each chicken breast thoroughly with dill pickle ranch dressing.
  4. Press the parmesan breadcrumbs onto each coated chicken breast until well-adhered.
  5. Place the chicken in the air fryer basket and spray lightly with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil.
  6. Cook in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.

Notes

Rest the chicken a few minutes before slicing for juicier meat. Serve with a squeeze of lemon for added brightness.
