Has your family been enjoying football season? I have something that goes great with game day. It’s my recipe for Ranch Chicken Nuggets.

Ranch Chicken Nuggets

Ranch dressing and chicken nuggets are two things that my family loves. Combine them together and you’ve got a touch down AND some extra points! This post was sponsored by Wish-Bone® and I was compensated to write it. Regardless, what I have written is my own opinion and experience, and I hope you find it of use.

These nuggets are a sure crowd pleaser when you have friends over to enjoy the game. We typically root for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Georgia Bulldogs at my house.

Who’s you’re favorite team?

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Wish-Bone® Ranch Dressing
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • 1 (8 ounce) box lemon pepper panko bread crumbs
  • additional Wish-Bone® Ranch Dressing for dipping

Instructions:

Step 1: Cut chicken into bite size pieces.

Step 2: In a bowl, combine bread crumbs and grated cheese. Stir to mix. Pour dressing into a bowl.

Step 3: Dip chicken pieces into dressing and coat completely. Then coat each piece evenly with bread crumb mixture.

Step 4: Place chicken nuggets onto a baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden.

Step 5: Serve as is, or with additional ranch dressing for dipping.

Get it. Love it. Score big with Wish-Bone®!

Give your Game Time a tangy twist with Wish-Bone® Ranch Dressing. Loaded with the flavor of herbs, garlic and a hint of tangy buttermilk, Wish-Bone® Ranch Dressing is an easy way to add a bit of zest to your recipes. The smooth and creamy dressing is also perfect for dipping. I have a family of Ranch dippers. So many things we eat get dipped in Ranch dressing. It’s good stuff and perfect for game day! Do you have  family members that like to dip in Ranch too?

    This sounds really good. I was thinking I would like to try adding some celery salt to the chicken before dipping in bread crumbs, but maybe just try it one first and see how it tastes. Sometimes I think it’s a great idea to add something to a recipe and I end up ruining it.

    These look amazing and my family would love these. My kids love the Wishbone Ranch Dressing but I don’t like any dressings. They would be so happy for me to make these for them. Thanks for sharing.
