Ah, you’re talking about that super simple, flavor-packed chicken hack—chicken with Italian dressing mix. Here’s a clear way to make it:
Italian Dressing Mix Chicken
Ingredients (for 4 servings):
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 1 packet (about 1 oz / 28 g) Italian dressing mix
- 1 can (10.5 oz / 300 g) cream of chicken soup or ½ cup olive oil & ½ cup Italian dressing if you want lighter
- Optional: 1–2 tsp garlic powder or onion powder for extra flavor
Instructions
Oven-Baked Version
- Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F.
- Place chicken in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle the Italian dressing mix evenly over the chicken.
- Pour cream of chicken soup over the top (or drizzle oil/dressing mixture).
- Cover with foil and bake 25–30 min (depending on thickness).
- Remove foil and bake an additional 10 min to lightly brown the top.
- Check internal temp: chicken should reach 75°C / 165°F.
Slow Cooker Version
- Place chicken in slow cooker.
- Sprinkle Italian dressing mix on top.
- Pour cream of chicken soup (or olive oil/dressing mix) over it.
- Cook on low 4–6 hours or high 2–3 hours until tender.
Serving tips:
- Serve with rice, pasta, or roasted veggies.
- The sauce is perfect for spooning over everything! 🍽️
If you want, I can also give a crispier, oven-roasted version where the Italian dressing mix forms a tasty crust on the chicken—like restaurant-style. Want me to do that?
