- Pat two chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, then lay the chicken in and cook without moving for 6 minutes until golden.
- Flip the chicken and cook for another 5 minutes until cooked through, then move to a plate.
- Pour off most of the fat from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Mince 2 garlic cloves and half a small onion finely and add to the pan, stirring often until soft, about 2 minutes.
- Crumble 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs into the pan, add 2 tablespoons butter, and stir until the crumbs are golden and smell nutty, about 3 minutes, then set aside.
- Arrange the chicken on plates, drizzle each breast with 1/2 cup of the avocado ranch dressing, and top with the crispy breadcrumb mixture.
Note Swap the chicken for white fish fillets, cooking just 3 minutes per side. Leftovers keep in the fridge for two days; reheat gently in a low oven. Serve with a bitter green salad or steamed green beans to cut through the richness.
