Needed a quick & easy weeknight meal. This is adapted from an old Taste of Home magazine. The chicken is tasty & juicy, with a nice crunchy crust. You won't miss the skin!

I made this last night for DH because he loves ranch dressing. I dusted the chicken with flour first since I was using a low fat dressing and I was afraid it would be thinner than regular. My chicken wasn't done in 45 minutes. I turned the oven to 400 degrees for another 20 minutes. I don't know if it was because I used a low fat dressing but it tasted sort of sour to us. I would try this again using Italian dressing. While the flavor was disappointing the chicken was very moist and the coating very crunchy. I'm sorry we didn't like it more but I think it was just our personal taste and not the recipe.

    I've made this recipe probably four times now, and realized I had as of yet to compliment it! I tell ya! I'm not a huge chicken fan, but I could eat these morning and night! I do the homemade ranch (which might make a difference, I dunno), and then just cook it as the recipe calls for. Man! One of my very favorites, for simplicity and flavor! Highly recommended!

    Kelly, this is a great way to cook chicken thighs. I used boneless, skinless thighs. The coating was crunchy and adhered well. The chicken meat was very moist and tender. Kudos for the idea of dipping in ranch dressing. It adds a lot to the flavor and moistness. More than satisfied my family of six. Thanks!!

    This was very good. I doubled the recipe and cooked it on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. I did not turn them; they got nice and brown (on the bottom too) and did not stick. Easy clean up.
