Ingredients
Method
- 1. Flatten chicken breasts to ½ inch thickness and marinate in ranch and Italian dressing for at least 30 minutes.
- 2. Preheat oven to 375°F and heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet.
- 3. Sear chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown but not fully cooked.
- 4. In a bowl, mix Parmesan, breadcrumbs, melted butter, and mayonnaise for the topping.
- 5. Add provolone slices on chicken, then spoon the Parmesan mixture over each piece.
- 6. Bake for 15 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature.
- 7. Broil 1–2 minutes for a crispy crust.
- 8. Let rest a few minutes before serving.
Notes
To prevent a soggy crust, use freshly grated cheese and finish under the broiler.
For meal prep, marinate the chicken ahead of time and store the topping separately until ready to bake.
