Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts? Yes, chicken thighs can be used in place of breasts. Adjust the cooking time accordingly, as thighs may take a bit longer to cook through.
Is there a substitute for ranch seasoning mix? If you don’t have ranch seasoning mix, you can make your own by combining dried parsley, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, and salt.
Can I use a different type of cheese? Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or even a spicy pepper jack for a bit of heat.
What’s the best way to ensure the chicken stays moist? Covering the chicken with ranch dressing helps lock in moisture. Additionally, avoid overcooking by checking for doneness with a meat thermometer; the internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
