What You'll Need
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 10 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (to taste)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 (8-ounce) bottle ranch dressing
- 1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
- 2 scallions, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dillweed
What to Do
- Cut chicken breast into thirds. In a large shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, dry mustard, nutmeg, cayenne pepper and seafood seasoning; dip chicken pieces into mixture.
- In a skillet, heat the oil until moderately hot; sauté the chicken pieces until golden.
- In a bowl, combine the ranch dressing, chopped cucumber, scallions and dillweed. Warm, (do not cook) the sauce either in the microwave or stovetop in a saucepan, and serve under or over the chicken.
Notes
this makes about 1-1/3 cups cucumber sauce, which you might want to try with other chicken or fish dishes.
