PAN-SEARED RANCH CHICKEN
In this recipe, America's favorite salad dressing serves double-duty: as a creamy, herbaceous sauce and as a marinade. But don't reach for bottled ranch. Instead, make your own brighter, tangier version using Greek yogurt. Unlike lemon or vinegar-based marinades, which can toughen meat, yogurt tenderizes even the leanest of chicken breasts. When the chicken is seared in a hot pan, the yogurt-mayo coating forms a flavorful, caramelized crust. (It also makes an excellent marinade for fish, pork, shrimp or sturdy vegetables.)

Steps:
- In a measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise, chives, dill and garlic powder; season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer half the ranch to a medium bowl.
- Pat the chicken dry. If thickness varies greatly, pound to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Season both sides with salt and pepper, then transfer the chicken to the medium bowl with the ranch and toss to coat. Let sit at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate overnight. (Let it come to room temperature before cooking.)
- Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if necessary, cook the chicken (with the marinade still on it) until deeply caramelized on the outside, chicken releases from the pan, and its juices run clear, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
- If the ranch in the measuring cup is too thick, add a little bit of water to loosen it. (You should be able to drizzle it easily.) Serve chicken with the ranch passed at the table, and more herbs as desired.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with foil (for easy cleanup, if desired); spray with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- Combine Corn Flakes, dry ranch dressing mix, and Parmesan cheese in a shallow dish.
- Place melted butter in a separate shallow dish.
- Use paper towels to pat the chicken dry.
- Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip the dry chicken in the melted butter to coat, then dredge in the Corn Flakes mixture.
- Place the breaded tenders on the prepared baking sheet. Spritz lightly with nonstick spray or mist with oil (this helps them brown even more in the oven).
- Bake for about 14-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is browned and crispy.

SUPER TENDER RANCH CHICKEN
After discovering the secret to feeding my flock with less, I also discovered that we had some ranch dressing that wasn't our favorite. Rather than throw it out, I put together this quick recipe and we loved it. Now, I make it often. If you have other quick-cooking side dishes to pair with this, you will have dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Put ranch dressing into medium sized bowl.
- Put bread crumbs with herbs and wheat germ (optional but adds a fantastic buttery-nutty crunch) added into another bowl next to the ranch dressing bowl.
- Pound chicken breasts into 1/4" thickness with cooking mallot. See my recipe for Mysterious Multiplying Chicken for directions on how to do this if you don't know how.
- Cut chicken breasts into strips over the bowl of ranch dressing so that strips fall into bowl. Stir with fingers to coat chicken pieces well.
- Wash hands, then pour enough of your favorite cooking oil (I use cold-pressed virgin olive oil for it's health benefits) into the bottom of a heavy skillet just to coat. Heat pan on med-high heat just until oil begins to smoke then turn heat to medium. You can use non-stick spray, but chicken doesn't get that pretty golden color and tends to get blacken as well. If you can handle two pans at the same time, you may want to consider that because two chicken breasts will fill two skillets worth.
- Take each chicken piece and dip into the bread crumbs and carefully lay each piece in the pan leaving only enough room between pieces to turn pieces with tongs. Cook approximately 3-4 minutes each side OR until golden brown each side (CHECK AFTER 2 MINUTES YOUR STOVE MAY COOK HOTTER THAN MINE). Cut into one piece to make sure it is done before removing pieces from skillet.
- Enjoy your juicy tender chicken.
