Creating the Sheet Pan Buffalo Ranch Chicken with Greek Yogurt Ranch is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs or breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
3. Add Buffalo Sauce: Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated.
4. Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the chicken in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced apart.
5. Bake: Place the sheet pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
6. While Chicken Cooks: In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the ranch seasoning until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
7. Plate Chicken: Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
8. Serve with Ranch: Serve the chicken pieces drizzled with Greek yogurt ranch on the side for dipping.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley if desired for color and flavor.
