Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large Boneless Chicken breast

For Chicken

  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Mixed herb
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1.5 tablespoon Butter

For Ranch Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 tablespoon Flour
  • 1 cup Stock

Instructions

1. Cut each chicken breast horizontally into 2 cutlets.

2. Mix garlic powder, mixed herb, salt and pepper. Season chicken breast on both sides.

3. Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet. Sear chicken for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

4. Remove chicken from the pan and keep it covered.

5. To the same skillet, add butter and sauté garlic for 30 seconds.

6. Stir in flour and cook for another 30 seconds.

7. Slowly add chicken stock while whisking constantly to make a smooth sauce.

8. Lower the heat and add sour cream and ranch seasoning. Whisk well and turn off the heat.

9. Return chicken to the pan and spoon the sauce over the top before serving.

Notes

This dish pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or rice. Make sure not to boil the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling. You can substitute chicken stock with vegetable broth if needed.
