"I recently moved and the person who lived in the apartment before me left tons of packets of Good Seasons Italian dressing packets (for cruet dressing). I am a huge chicken fan, and I love the taste of Italian, so I decided to try this. It is the best chicken I've ever tasted, and with only 3 ingredients! The key is to let it marinate for at least 8 hours, otherwise the flavor is not as strong. This is good for a chicken dinner, or if you are making chicken to use in something else."

ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (2/3 ounce) packet Italian salad dressing mix
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (2 Tbsp-1/4 cup)

directions

Lay out the four chicken breasts and lightly sprinkle them with the Italian dressing mix.
Flip the chicken over and lightly sprinkle the other side. You will still have a good amount of Italian dressing mix left.
In a large Ziploc bag, dump the remaining Italian dressing mix and add oil a little at a time until you have a thin paste. I cannot give you an exact amount of oil to add as it depends on how heavily you sprinkled the mix on the chicken, but start out with a couple tablespoons and go from there. You want the consistency to be that of applesauce.
Add the seasoned chicken to the bag and make sure the chicken gets well-coated.
Marinate the chicken for at least 8 hours in the refrigerator. I usually marinate mine overnight.
Cook the chicken your preferred way. I usually just cook mine in a skillet on the stove. There is no need to add oil to the skillet since the chicken marinated in some oil! I love the delicious crust I get from pan-frying it!
