I put the chicken breasts and ranch dressing in a ziplock bag. I put the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, pepper, sage, salt and garlic powder in a separate smaller ziplock bag. I put both bags into the freezer. I remembered it was in there and pulled it out for dinner last night. It was very tasty. The chicken came out crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.

I did not have time to marinate the chicken, so I just dipped it in ranch dressing then in the bread crumb mixture, then baked it....it was still great. Next time I will start in time to marinate it according to the instructions. I will definitely be using this chicken recipe again. Thanks for posting it, Margo59!!

Okay, so I just wanted to review this again because I made an alteration and it came out great. This time, when I made the chicken, I marinated it and then, before coating it in the bread crumbs, I slathered on a thick layer of ranch on each side of the chicken. I then sprinkled on the breadcrumbs in stead of tossing the chicken in them so that the ranch didn't come off the chicken...it came out excellent! You could definitely taste the ranch and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks!
