Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons low sodium ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt and low sodium ranch seasoning until well blended. Set aside.
Step 3
In another bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, chopped parsley, and black pepper.
Step 4
Dip each chicken breast into the Greek yogurt mixture, ensuring a thick, even coat on all sides.
Step 5
Gently press each yogurt-coated chicken breast into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, making sure it's fully covered. Shake off any excess.
Step 6
Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Drizzle a small amount of the olive oil over the top of each chicken breast to promote browning.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
Step 9
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired.
