Breaded Ranch Chicken

Good recipe for those days you can't think of what else to make! ☺



Breaded Ranch Chicken

3/4 c. Cornflake or bread crumbs (I've done both and the cornflake is better)

3/4 c. Parmesan Cheese

1 pkg Ranch Dressing mix

8 Chicken Breasts

1/2 c. melted Butter or Margarine (if you want a lower fat version, do 1/2 c. buttermilk and 1 egg, whisked)

Mix the crumbs, dressing mix and parmesan cheese together. (I like to add some garlic powder and pepper) Dip the chicken into the melted butter and then into crumb mixture, then place on a pan.

Bake at 350 for 25-40 minutes depending on how big your pieces of chicken are. (the juices should be clear)

I've made this a day ahead, put them on a cooking sheet, covered in plastic wrap in the fridge and then uncovered the next day when it was time to cook. It turned out really well that way too, very flavorful and not dry!

Favorite Coffee Cake

Definitely a sentimental favorite. I grew up eating this coffee cake and more often than not we made it for supper. ☺

Favorite Coffee Cake
1-1/2 c. Flour
1/4 c. Sugar
2-1/2 t. Baking Powder
1/4 t. Salt
1/4 c. Milk
1 Egg

Mix above ingredients and pour into an 8x8 greased pan.

Topping:
1/3 c. Brown Sugar
1/4 c. Flour
3 T. Butter

Mix until crumbly and sprinkle over batter.
Bake @ 375 for 25-30 minutes
Serve warm with butter. Yum! ☺

We used to press the topping into the batter with our fingers, so that you had crunchy goodness all throughout the cake, but that's not required.

Update!

Sorry I've been MIA from this blog!

Between morning sickness and being pregnant in general, I haven't either wanted to eat or cook. ☺ I'm hoping to be back at it soon though...

In case you haven't noticed, my sister Sharon has been working on this blog for me (appearance, new pages, etc..) I've wanted to make the recipes easier to access for awhile now and she's making that happen.

Thanks Sharon!
