This is a good recipe, but it’s not really Longhorn’s… Here’s a much closer one.
Copycat LongHorn Steakhouse Parmesan-Crusted Chicken
Ingredients
-
4 chicken breasts (about 5 oz each)
-
3 Tbsp canola oil (for searing)
-
4 slices provolone cheese
-
¼ cup grated Parmesan
-
¼ cup ranch dressing
-
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
-
1 tsp garlic powder
-
2 Tbsp butter, melted
-
Fresh parsley, chopped (garnish) YouTube
Notes from popular tested versions: some recipes marinate the chicken in Italian + ranch dressing first and use a provolone/Parmesan/ranch “spread” under the panko for extra melt. Optional but tasty. The Country Cook+1
Directions
-
Prep & preheat. Heat oven to 450°F (or set broiler to low). Pat chicken dry and season lightly with salt/pepper.
-
Sear the chicken. Heat canola oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Sear chicken 3–4 min per side until golden and ~150–155°F internal. Remove from heat. YouTube
-
Make the cheese spread. Stir together ¼ cup Parmesan + ¼ cup ranch until combined. (Common copycat approach to get the signature creamy layer.) The Country Cook+1
-
Make the crumb topping. Mix panko + garlic powder + melted butter with a pinch of salt. YouTube
-
Assemble. Spread a spoonful of the Parmesan-ranch over each chicken breast. Top each with 1 slice provolone, then mound on some panko mixture. The Country Cook+1
-
Melt & brown. Move skillet to the oven (or a sheet pan). Broil or bake until cheese is melted, crumbs are toasted, and chicken hits 165°F, about 3–6 minutes depending on your oven.
-
Finish. Rest 3 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Optional marinade (restaurant-style vibe)
Whisk ½ cup Italian dressing + ⅓ cup ranch; coat chicken and marinate 30 minutes to overnight before searing. Pat off excess before step 2. The Country Cook
