Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Let rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.
- In a small bowl, mix the ranch dressing with Sriracha sauce until smooth. Adjust the spice level to taste.

Notes

- Store components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
