Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take the boneless, skinless chicken breasts and pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub this seasoning mix all over the chicken breasts.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy. Once cooked, remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

  4. 4

    Sear the Chicken

    In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    In a baking dish, place the seared chicken breasts. Drizzle ranch dressing over the top of each breast, then crumble the crispy bacon over the ranch dressing.

  6. 6

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the bacon and ranch dressing.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

  8. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
