Description

This creamy and flavorful Caesar chicken is incredibly tender, with the perfect balance of savory Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and garlic. A simple, crowd-pleasing dish that’s perfect for any weeknight dinner or special occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the Caesar dressing, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • Pour the Caesar mixture over the chicken breasts, spreading it evenly to coat them completely.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

Notes

  • For an extra touch, you can sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese on top of the chicken before baking for a crispier finish.
  • Serve this dish with a side of roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • You can also use chicken thighs for a juicier alternative.
