- 2 tablespoons homemade ranch seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Notes
The nutrition facts include using 2 tablespoons of my Homemade Ranch Seasoning. If using store-bought ranch seasoning, adjust accordingly.
My Top Tip: Start with dry chicken. Pat dry the chicken breasts with a paper towel. The oil sticks better, and in turn, the dry ranch seasoning sticks better too!
Storage: Store leftover ranch chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To quickly reheat, cover the chicken with a damp paper towel and reheat in a microwave in short increments until warmed through.
Freezing: You can also freeze the chicken in zip-top bag or a freezer-safe storage containers for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat.
