Ranch Chicken Tenders

This is an ideal dish for a gathering because it is easy finger food.  Perfect for a football party, picnic, or informal cocktail party.  You can serve this chicken dish as an appetizer with your favorite sauce to dip into (try Leigh’s Marinara Sauce) or put it on top of a salad or pasta dish and enjoy it as a meal.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil on medium heat.  Put:

1/4 cup ranch

in one dish.  And put:

1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs

in another dish.  Dip chicken tenders (about 1 pound total), one piece at a time, first into the ranch and then into the bread crumbs.  Add to heated oil and cook, covered, for about 12-15 minutes.  Turn only once, otherwise bread crumbs will come off the chicken.  Serve warm.

Makes about 8 chicken tenders
