  • Total Time: 18 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds), sliced in half horizontally
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup (120 g) dill pickle ranch dressing, plus more for serving
  • 1 cup (100 g) grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 3 tablespoons plain breadcrumbs
  • Fresh dill, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  2. Pat chicken breasts dry and season evenly with the spice mixture.
  3. In a separate small bowl, mix dill pickle ranch dressing with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Spread over chicken.
  4. Combine remaining Parmesan cheese with breadcrumbs. Sprinkle over chicken to create a crispy topping.
  5. Place coated chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, checking at 8 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  6. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh dill and drizzle with extra dill pickle ranch dressing before serving.

Notes

  • Oven Instructions: Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Bake chicken for 20-22 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F. For extra crispiness, broil for the final 2-3 minutes.
  • Optional Serving Suggestions: Serve with roasted vegetables, a green salad, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
