Notes

For best results, use fresh chicken breasts and pat them dry before cooking. Full-fat cream cheese and mayonnaise are essential for optimal flavor and texture. Be sure to check the ranch seasoning mix for hidden sugars and starches, or make your own from scratch. Serve immediately and store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
