I love anything ranch, and so today I have a brand new recipe for any of you that love ranch too. This recipe is inspired by a friend who had us over for dinner a few weeks ago. She made roasted pork chops, potatoes, and asparagus. I loved the spice mix she used and so I asked what it was. Of course it was really no surprise when she answered that she used ranch seasoning mix. Well… that made a lot of sense that I was loving it because who doesn’t love ranch!?!
Quick and Easy Time Saving Tip:
Use your favorite pre-made ranch seasoning mix, but do be mindful of the ingredients if you have allergies!

I hope you’ll enjoy this as much as we have been, and let me know below what your favorite ranch recipe is! 5 from 13 reviews 4 strips of bacon, cut in half to create 8 shorter strips, see notes Ranch Seasoning: 1 Teaspoon granulated dried onion powder 1/2 Teaspoon granulated dried garlic powder 1/4 Teaspoon ground black pepper 1/2 Teaspoon sea salt 1/4 Teaspoon smoked paprika, see notes 1 Teaspoon dried dill, or 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh To brush on top: 1 Tablespoon each olive oil and fresh lemon juice 1 Teaspoon Dijon mustard Place the chicken breasts into a large 9-10″ cast iron skillet or baking dish. Place 2 of the cut strips of bacon on each chicken breast, and then tuck the ends under. Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, and mustard until combined. Brush the mixture evenly over the top of the bacon wrapped chicken. Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. A thermometer will read 165ºF. Turn the oven to high broil if the bacon need crisping and watch it constantly for 3-5 minutes, or until crispy browned. Serve immediately with your choice of sides. And leftovers are great chopped up, gently reheated, and added to a salad! You can use regular paprika if you can’t find smoked paprika. The smoked paprika adds and extra smoky kick that pairs well with the bacon, but it’s not absolutely necessary.
