Creating Creamy Ranch Chicken is a manageable process. Follow these steps for a successful dish:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Season the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Sear the Chicken: In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, mix the ranch seasoning with heavy cream until well combined.
5. Combine: Pour the ranch sauce over the seared chicken in the skillet.
6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chicken and sauce.
