DIRECTIONS. 1 Preheat oven to 350°. 2 Rinse chicken and pat dry. 3 Place Ritz crackers in the blender and blend until finer than breadcrumbs. 4 Melt butter completely (I microwave it). 5 Dip chicken in melted butter. 6 Coat chicken in Ritz crumbs and place on baking sheet. 7 Bake for 45 minutes.
To reheat the leftovers, simply microwave until warmed through. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the beaten eggs and Ritz cracker crumbs in two separate shallow bowls. Add the garlic salt and pepper to the Ritz crumbs and stir until well-combined. Dip the chicken in the eggs until all sides are completely covered.
Crumble crackers into a bowl (crumbs should not be too small) and mix in cheese. Coat chicken with melted butter and then roll in cracker crumb mix. Place on baking sheet or pan and sprinkle more crumbs on top. After all pieces are coated, drizzle remaining butter over chicken and top with remaining crackers.
Butter: Adding slices of butter on top of the Ritz crackers help keep this chicken juicy and makes the crackers perfectly crispy without burning them. Start by whisking the eggs together in one shallow bowl, then mix together the crushed Ritz crackers with the spices in another shallow bowl.
