Pan-seared chicken breast in a luscious ranch cream sauce, perfect for a quick and flavorful dinner.

# Required Ingredients:

→ Chicken

01 - 2 large boneless chicken breasts
02 - 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
03 - 1 teaspoon mixed dried herbs
04 - 0.5 teaspoon salt
05 - 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
06 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
07 - 1.5 tablespoons unsalted butter

→ Ranch Sauce

08 - 1 tablespoon minced garlic
09 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
10 - 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
11 - 240 ml chicken stock
12 - 60 ml sour cream
13 - 1.5 tablespoons Ranch seasoning

# How to Make It:

01 - Slice each chicken breast horizontally to create 2 even cutlets.
02 - Combine garlic powder, mixed dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Evenly coat both sides of the chicken cutlets with the seasoning blend.
03 - Heat olive oil and 1.5 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken cutlets on each side for 3–4 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken and keep covered.
04 - In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
05 - Stir in flour and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Gradually add chicken stock, whisking constantly, to create a smooth sauce.
06 - Reduce heat to low. Whisk in sour cream and Ranch seasoning until fully combined. Turn off the heat.
07 - Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the creamy ranch sauce over each cutlet before serving.

# Additional Information:

01 - For best results, allow the chicken to rest under cover after searing to retain moisture.
