    Baked Mississippi Chicken*

    * not tested

    Ingredients

    • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    • 1 packet ranch seasoning
    • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
    • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
    • 1 jar sliced pepperoncini peppers
    • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Preparation

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F and spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.
    2. Arrange the chicken in the baking pan and season with salt and pepper.
    3. Sprinkle ranch seasoning over chicken, followed by au jus mix. Slice the butter into pats and place over chicken.
    4. Scatter about 1/3 cup of the sliced peppers over the chicken, then drizzle some of the juice from the jar (about 3 tablespoons) over as well. If you’d like yours a little spicier, feel free to use more of either.
    5. Bake uncovered until a thermometer inserted into the center of the breast reaches 165°F, about 30 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken.
    6. Serve and enjoy!
