Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Seasoning, Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix Packet Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Seasoning, Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix Packet
¾ cup bread crumbs unseasoned breadcrumbs
4 chicken breast halves boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (4–5 ounces per piece)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise and seasoning mix until well-blended. Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl or plate.
Dip each breast in the mayonnaise mixture, turning on all sides until well-coated, shaking off any excess. Lay the chicken in the breadcrumbs and turn until evenly coated. 
TIP: Fresh chicken should be pink in color. A pale hue could indicate that the meat has been on the shelf too long.
Arrange chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake approximately 25 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 165°F or until juices run clear. (For chicken breasts weighing 6 to 8 ounces, increase cooking time to 40 to 45 minutes.)
