Ranch Chicken with Winn-Dixie Croutons #CBias

By Jennifer (Double Duty Mommy) at 8:00 AM
I was asked to shop at Winn-Dixie and find some Rothbury Farms croutons and create a recipe with them. I love going to Winn-Dixie when they have their awesome Buy One Get One Free sale on meats. How can you beat that?

Also, Winn-Dixie has a gas club called FuelPerks. Every time you spend $50 at any participating Winn-Dixie using your NEW Reward Card, you earn a 5¢ per gallon discount on gasoline (up to 20 gallons) at participating gas stations.

While at was searching my Winn-Dixie for great deals I also tried finding the Rothbury Farms croutons but I had no such luck. I tried called 4 other stores in my area (even 14 miles away) but couldn't find one store that carried this brand of croutons.
I opted to purchase some Winn-Dixie brand croutons instead. Winn-Dixie makes 3-4 different flavors of their croutons but I already knew what I was going to make with them so I grabbed the Ranch flavor.

This Ranch Chicken I am going to make is crispy and full of flavor. Now I have changed up my usually recipe since I will be using the croutons but I assure you this chicken is amazing! Check out my Google + Story to see my full shop!


Start by putting some croutons in the chopping. The amount depends on how many pieces of chicken you are cooking. Maybe 1 cup for 4 whole chicken breasts.

I chopped them up pretty fine but if you'd like bigger pieces then of course don't chop it so much.

Add a packet of Ranch dressing mix.
You'll also need to add 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese. I forgot to take a picture of this step :(
Place your chicken in about 4 Tablespoons of melted butter (you can pre-season your chicken like my husband thought would be nice of him to do for me. Usually I don't season them though)
Coat with the crouton/cheese mix then cook. Be sure to leave the chicken for a few minutes without turning so you can get a nice brown crust.

YUMMMM!!

Using the Winn-Dixie Ranch Croutons were so easy and make the chicken taste so delicious.

I miss our Winn-Dixie!! When they down sized a few years ago, they closed the store that was right down the road from our house! We loved the pharmacy there too and it has been hard finding one that we like just as much. Thanks for the great recipe, I am always looking for great ideas for chicken. I think this would be perfect with a salad and yummy homemade Hidden Valley Ranch dressing!

We don't have a Winn-Dixie anywhere near where I live either. And that chicken looks yummy!

We don't have a Winn Dixie here in Vegas (but you knew that) however, this sounds very similar to the way I start my Chicken Parm. YUM!

I LOVE chicken so definitely will try this one! Easy and sounds flavorful. I know kids and hubby will like paired with some "ugly" potatoes. We also get fuel perks in our local store. Makes a lil' dent in our gas bills too! Every little bit counts!  thanks  for the recipe!
