Crispy Garlic Ranch Chicken Recipe with Garlic Ranch Potatoes and Peppers

This Crispy Garlic Ranch Chicken Recipe is quick and easy to make and pairs perfectly with our recipe for Garlic Ranch Potatoes and Peppers.

My 7-year-old nephew loooooves to cook. He is an expert smoothie maker and he has wonderful food presentation skills. He is also a BIG fan of cooking shows on TV.

He has picked up a pretty impressive amount of knowledge about cooking terms and concepts. I’m really interested to see if this cooking interest continues. With this head start he could be a great chef by the time he reaches adulthood!

Yesterday my little chef went to the store with me to pick up some ingredients and then helped to create this yummy Crispy Garlic Ranch Chicken recipe along with a side of Garlic Ranch Potatoes and Peppers.

He is actually very good at (and careful about) cutting vegetables and handled all of that, which is really the most time-consuming part of either recipe.

My nephew obviously enjoyed this cooking experience because my sister texted me this message late last night:

I had to laugh because that “fancy pan” was nothing more than a baking rack placed over a 9×13 cake pan. Very fancy indeed!

I originally created this recipe using Hidden Valley Ranch Roasted Garlic dressing, but unfortunately that flavor has been discontinued.
