Serve up some bliss for dinner with my crispy oven baked cheesy Ritz cracker chicken. Dipped in milk, rolled in ritz crackers and cheddar cheese.

📝 Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers (crushed)
  • 4 tablespoons butter, (melted)
  • 2 large eggs, (beaten)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 cups cheddar cheese (grated)
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 (14-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/4 cup milk

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Spray a 9X13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. 2Mix the Ritz cracker crumbs (2 sleeves) with melted butter (4 tablespoons).
  3. 3Pour the Ritz crumb and butter mixture, beaten eggs (2), and cheddar (3 cups) into three separate shallow dishes. Add salt (1/4 teaspoon) and pepper (1/4 teaspoon) to milk and stir to combine. Set aside
  4. 4Cut chicken (4) into three equal pieces. Dip each piece into eggs, then cheddar, then finish in the cracker crumbs. Place dipped pieces in the prepared baking dish. Finish with remaining chicken. Sprinkle with dried parsley (1 teaspoon).
  5. 5Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes or until chicken pieces are cooked through and edges are brown and crispy.
