Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with foil for easier cleanup.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them on a cutting board.
In a small bowl, mix together the Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts, then sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken. Rub the seasoning in to coat each piece thoroughly.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven or carefully place the chicken into the prepared baking dish if you're not using an oven-safe skillet.
Bake the chicken in the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired, and serve with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
