Pretzel Ranch Chicken Tenders

Another simple, easy and delicious dinner from Cassie - Pretzel Ranch Chicken Tenders. I love how the salty pretzels and the Ranch combine to make a perfectly seasoned chicken tender.



Pretzel Ranch Chicken Tenders
Cassie Craves

1-2 pounds chicken breasts, sliced into strips
Ranch dressing
Pretzels

Place chicken tenders in a bowl and cover with ranch dressing; stir to combine. Let sit for 5 or 10 minutes or cover and refrigerate overnight.

Process pretzels in a food processor until they are fine crumbs. Coat chicken tenders in pretzel crumbs. Cook over medium heat in a skillet with a small amount of oil, or bake in a 350-degree oven, until cooked through.

Serve with additional ranch dressing for dipping.
Pin It!

  1. I WANT THIS RIGHT NOW. Ranch is my weakness and adding pretzels to the mix makes me weak! Might I add the pasta side looks really yummy too. :)

  2. Leanne - serve it with Mac and cheese. The version I tried in the photo wasn't good so you won't be seeing it on here. :)

  3. I'm so glad you liked these! I served them with mac and cheese when I made them recently, too, and thought that went perfectly.

  4. These look so kid-friendly and I am a sucker for anything dipped in ranch dressing. I hated it when I first moved to Texas, then I grew to love it (much like queso.)

  5. OK. As soon as I saw the name of this post my mouth started watering. I love those little pretzel bites that are ranch flavored and I imagine these would taste similiar but with chicken. YUM!
