    please recheck the nutritional calculation - the calculation looks like it only took into account 1 chicken breast divided into 6 servings. when i put in the ingredients - 6 chicken breast and a cup of salad dressing it drastically changes the nutritional info - 4/23/09

    MasterCook nutrition analysis using 6 8-ounce skinless, boneless breasts, lo-cal ranch & Mrs. Dash: 341 calories, 11 g fat, 55 g protein, 3 g carbohydrates, 137 mg cholesterol, 500 mg sodium. Each 8-ounce breast is 260 calories so smaller breasts would reduce overall calories. - 10/20/09

    I make this all the time. I use low fat Ranch and then dip them into Italian Breadcrumbs and bake - 6/25/11

    The seasonings on this were way too strong! And I even used 7 big breasts. Will definitely use less pepper and salt - those measurements made the chicken unedible. - 10/6/11

    It was GREAT! I have never cooked a REAL MEAL and decided that I needed to to learn how to cook. This sounded simple enough, I gave it a shot and it turned out amazing! It was so easy, really tender and juicy and I used Betty Crocker's Suddenly Pasta Salad as a side along with seasoned, cooked peas. - 4/9/10

    Simple, easy, and tasty. Really easy to make less. It was just me and my fiance so I just made 1/3 the recipe. Just enough flavor without being too overpowering. - 12/8/08

    This was fantastic. I used Bolthouse Greek Yogurt Ranch, thyme and Mrs. DASH. So simple. I'll be repeating this many times. I baked cut up sweet potatoes and baby carrots for 20 minutes then added the chicken and Ranch dressing for another 35 minutes. Delicious! - 2/2/19

    I'm not much of a cook, but this recipe looked so simple that I gave it a try...and it was a huge hit with the family! Thank you for sharing! I served it alongside green beans and a salad, and it was really tasty. I did use thighs instead of breasts, but put that into the recipe calculator. - 6/14/16

    I mixed pepper,basil, and onion powder and basil nixed as a rub let it sit on the chicken for an hour. Added thousand island dressing instead of ranch and it was amazing. My family definitely enjoyed the thousand island more than ranch - 11/28/15

    The chicken turned out juicy and delicious. Something about the ranch sauce wasn't to my taste, maybe the basil? I will try again though and experiment with the spices. - 6/25/14

    I used low-fat ranch, but added some butter. Let it sit after coming out of the oven for the juice to thicken some. goes really good with Cyn's Mock Potato casserole!! - 5/8/12

    Excellent recipe. Easy to follow and easy to cook. My family loves this for dinner. One poster asked what to serve and we usually have either couscous as a side or we have corn and green beans as a side. Either way the entree is still delicious! - 9/4/11

    I LOVE this stuff! I sometimes use crunched up stuffing mix with some Parmesan cheese in the crust but pretty much anything works! I also use this recipe for thighs/legs/etc when DH is craving KFC and I can't justify the calories! :) Great recipe! TY for posting! - 11/6/08
