CHICKEN ENSENADA

Ok, who's been to RED ROBIN and had the Chicken Ensenada platter? It's good. Well, I was playing around and wala I think I found the recipe for the chicken. It's soooo good. It would be great on salad also.

3 chicken breasts-flattened
1/2 package of hidden valley ranch-fiesta style
1/2 cup of grated parm cheese(green can)

Mix the parm cheese and ranch packet together and put in a baggy. Add the chicken one at a time and then fry in a hot frying pan turning each piece of chicken once. It will take about 3 min per side. It's so easy, fast and yummy. ENJOY!
