This Longhorn Garlic Parmesan Crusted Chicken is a delicious, restaurant-inspired dish featuring a crispy, cheesy crust and juicy marinated chicken. Follow these steps for a flavorful homemade version!

Ingredients

For the Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

For the Crust:

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup melted butter
1 cup shredded provolone cheese

For the Marinade:

½ cup olive oil
½ cup bottled ranch dressing
3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, ranch dressing, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, and black pepper.
Marinate: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 8 hours for best results).

Step 2: Prepare the Crust Mixture
In a bowl, mix Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs.
Add melted butter to the mixture and stir until combined.

Step 3: Cook the Chicken
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Sear the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Sear the chicken in the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the seared chicken breasts to a baking dish.

Step 4: Bake and Add the Crust
Bake the Chicken: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is nearly cooked through.
Add the Crust: Remove the dish from the oven, top each chicken breast with shredded provolone cheese, then spoon the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture over the cheese.

Step 5: Broil to Finish
Broil: Set the oven to broil, and return the dish to the oven. Broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown and crispy.

Step 6: Serve
Serve the Longhorn Garlic Parmesan Crusted Chicken hot with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad.

Tips
For added flavor: Sprinkle a bit of chopped fresh parsley over the chicken before serving.

Alternate cheeses: Mozzarella or a combination of mozzarella and provolone can be used for an extra gooey crust.
