About

It may be called Cheesy Valley Chicken, but the flavor is all peaks! Tangy ranch seasoning and sour cream are slathered directly onto the savory, tender chicken for maximum enjoyment. The coating is crunchy, sharp, cheesy, and extra satisfying. Cheesy Valley Chicken is crispy and perfect when served alongside potatoes or on top of fluffy rice!
