Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 to 2 lbs)
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing (preferably Halal-friendly)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or Halal cream alternative
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • to taste as needed olive oil or preferred cooking oil (for frying)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by seasoning your chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and dried parsley. Ensure each piece is well-coated.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breasts.
  2. Sear the chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
  3. In the same skillet, lower the heat and pour in the ranch dressing and heavy cream. Stir continuously until combined and simmer gently.
  4. Once the sauce is smooth and coats the chicken, let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with low-fat yogurt, avoiding overheating. If grilling, avoid overcrowding the pan for even cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently.
