This Easy 3-Ingredient Ritz Cracker Chicken is a great tasting Kid Friendly recipe that’s ready in 30 minutes! The chicken is so wonderfully moist and you only need 3 ingredients to make it! My kids were in love with the chicken and there was no left overs in my kitchen. When I told my family what was in it they were shocked and to tell you the truth I was shocked how good it was.
To start this easy recipe put your chicken tenders, ranch and crushed crackers in bowls. Then like an assembly line just dip the chicken in to the ranch dressing then the crackers onto the baking sheet. I prefer to put it on a rack to help the chicken be crunchy all around, but it is still very good on a baking sheet as well.

September 21, 2018 at 6:11 pmI went to make this, as I’ve done a thousand times before, when I discovered the Ranch was missing! It takes me 20 minutes to drive to nearest store, so I subbed with Dijon mustard, instead. I simply brushed it on with pastry brush, and then rolled in cracker crumbs. Was amazing.
