Longhorn Steakhouse Parmesan Chicken
This Parmesan Crusted Chicken is inspired by the famous Longhorn Steakhouse recipe. It's a juicy, perfectly seasoned chicken breast topped with a creamy Parmesan ranch sauce and a crispy cheese crust. Perfect for a comforting dinner at home.
Ingredients
- For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- For the Parmesan Crust:
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to a baking dish.
- Make the Parmesan Topping: In a bowl, mix Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, and melted butter. In a separate small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ranch dressing, and Dijon mustard.
- Assemble the Topping: Spread the mayo-ranch mixture over each chicken breast. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, then sprinkle the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture on top.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the topping is golden brown.
- Serve: Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes or a fresh salad.
Notes
- You can use chicken thighs instead of breasts for a juicier option. Adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- For an extra crispy topping, broil the chicken for 2-3 minutes after baking.
- Serve with roasted vegetables, garlic bread, or over a bed of pasta for a complete meal.
