You may have tried chicken coated with ranch dressing; while the dressing adds moisture, it also adds extra calories. Use dry ranch seasoning to get flavor without the fat!

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.

Mix flour and 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning in a shallow bowl.

Beat egg in a second shallow bowl.

Crush ranch-flavored tortilla chips in a food processor or Vitamix until they are fine crumbs.

Combine crushed tortilla chips remaining 2 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning and panko bread crumbs in a third shallow bowl.

Dip each chicken thigh first in flour mixture then in egg and finally in tortilla chip mixture.

Place on the prepared baking sheet.
