📝 Ingredients
Main Ingredients
-
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-
1 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
-
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Optional Flavor Boosters
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
½ tsp black pepper
-
½ tsp Italian seasoning
-
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
👩🍳 Directions
1. Prepare the Chicken
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
Place chicken breasts in the dish and season lightly with black pepper (Caesar dressing already contains salt).
2. Add the Caesar Topping
In a small bowl, mix Caesar dressing with garlic and Italian seasoning if using.
Spread the mixture evenly over each chicken breast, fully coating the top.
3. Add the Cheese
Sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese generously over the chicken. Press lightly so it sticks to the dressing.
4. Bake
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the topping is golden and bubbly.
For extra browning, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end.
