“FREAKING AWESOME” That is all Chicken Legs wants me to say about this chicken. He took one bite and said this was the best thing I’ve ever made. I had to agree, this was absolutely delicious! This recipe is from Longhorn Steakhouse. My Mom found the recipe in the paper. I love this dish at Longhorn’s and I was really excited to try it at home!
How to Make Longhorn Parmesan Chicken
I made this twice before I got it the way I wanted it. The original recipe called for the chicken to be cooked in a skillet on the stove. We tried it that way and it was good but not as good as I remembered. I wanted to give it another try and decided to grill the chicken. That made all the difference. It was just as good, if not better as it was in the restaurant. Chicken Legs has already asked to have it again this weekend. He also asked if I would make some extra chicken for lunch the next day.
This looks like a lot of ingredients, but it is really quick and easy. I marinated the chicken and prepared the ranch spread and parmesan crumb topping while Chicken Legs grilled the chicken. Dinner was ready in under 30 minutes! If you want to make this even easier, feel free to marinate the chicken in Italian dressing instead of my marinade.
To make this low-carb/keto-friendly, swap the panko bread crumbs for some crushed up pork rinds.

Do you use white or apple cidar vinegar and also i kniw this is stupid but i dont think my oven has a broiler lol so what temp should i turn my oven on at?
Lol. Every oven has a broiler setting.
I had this chicken at Longhorn the other day, and Ive been wanting it since. At first i didnt think the ranch and parmesan would be good, but it was excellent. Thank you for sharing your recipe. =)

I can't even begin to describe how much I love this chicken! My boyfriend and I love to make this together because does the grilling and I can do the other steps. I think it's better then Longhorn! So so delicious!!
Nutrition facts for this recipe? Anyone? (currently in the oven and waiting for a delicious weekday feast to occur)
Lydia – the chicken needs to be broiled so the crumbs get toasted. The chicken is already cooked, so if you bake it, it will be dry.
Can you put it in the over instead of the broiler? If so, how long should I leave it in the oven? at what temp?
Made this for the first time today and it was delicious! 🙂
OMG!!! I know no one knows how much I love LONGHORN'S chicken, but I ABSOLUTELY DO!!! My baby and I used to go there up to 3 times a week and that's ALL I would order. The servers knew what I wanted when they came to the table. I am not a cook at all, but did try another recipe I thought was close, but it was nowhere near!!! I AM SO, SO GRATEFUL YOU POSTED THIS RECIPE. I LOVE LONGHORN!!! I LOVE THIS CHICKEN!!! The recipe was so easy I was able to make it!!! That's saying a lot as far as cooking goes!!! I love it!!!! IT'S NEARLY the EXACT SAME TASTE!!! And I do love it much better!!! Thank you so much!!! You saved me a ton of money, and boosted my cooking confidence at the same time!!! lol!
This is my second time reviewing this recipe. It's just SO good! I actually didn't realize that I didn't have provolone at the last minute, so I used mozzarella & we couldn't tell a difference. I also only use 1/4 c oil in the marinade & it's plenty. We love this chicken!
ali – heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in an oven safe skillet. Pan sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side. Put the skillet in the oven at 400 for 10 minutes.
