King Ranch Chicken

Recipe Directions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste.
In a small bowl, mix the ranch seasoning mix with olive oil to form a paste.
Rub the ranch seasoning paste evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned.
Transfer the skillet or baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
