Description

A quick and flavorful weeknight dish featuring tender chicken coated in creamy Caesar dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (optional)
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the sauce by mixing Caesar dressing, sour cream, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  3. Coat the chicken breasts with the creamy mixture in a greased baking dish.
  4. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Broil for an extra 2-3 minutes for a golden top.

Notes

Marinate the chicken for 30 minutes for deeper flavor. Consider using light Caesar dressing for a healthier option.
