Description

This Copycat Longhorn Parmesan Crusted Chicken replicates the restaurant favorite with tender grilled chicken breasts topped with a creamy ranch spread, crispy Parmesan breadcrumbs, and melted cheese for a mouthwatering homemade version.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup provolone cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden. Set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs with melted butter and half the Parmesan cheese.
  4. Place chicken breasts on a baking sheet. Spread each with ranch dressing, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and provolone cheese, then top with breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Broil on high for 2-3 minutes until the topping is golden and bubbly.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F internally.
  • You can substitute provolone with mozzarella or Swiss cheese.
  • Double the breadcrumb topping for extra crunch.
