My favorite meals tend to be those that I just throw together. Like this chicken with Parmesan & bacon. Delicious! It is super easy to make any day of the week, even busy weekdays.

This meal has become a huge favorite with everyone in our family, I have to make double the amount of chicken that I normally make for anything else and it still doesn’t seem to be enough.
My favorite thing is you don’t have to measure, just sprinkle one ingredient over the other and bake. Make it to your family’s taste.
What you need:
- Parmesan cheese
- ranch dressing
- bread crumbs
- garlic powder – easier than grating or chopping garlic cloves
- bacon bits
- boneless, skinless chicken breasts
How to make Chicken with Parmesan & Bacon
Grab some chicken breasts and a casserole dish. Also grab some ranch, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, bacon bits, and of course Parmesan.
You’re going to start with placing your chicken breast in your casserole dish. Spread some ranch over the top of them, sprinkle garlic powder over the top of the ranch, add it to your taste.
Sprinkle the bread crumbs over top, using about half a cup. Toss some bacon bits over the chicken, and sprinkle or grate some Parmesan cheese over all of it.
Cover for half of the cooking time to prevent the bread crumbs and bacon from burning. Bake at 425, for 25-30 minutes or until the juices run clear.
Use a good size spoon to scoop out each piece of chicken, trying not to lose any of the toppings. Serve with some vegetables of choice, our choice was baked potatoes. YUM! Plus I then had less clean up than cooking on a stove top.
This Chicken with Parmesan & Bacon is so good that we’ve had twice in two weeks, and we’re not fans of repeat meals in the same month let alone back to back weeks.
