Succulent Caesar Chicken melts taste buds with creamy parmesan and tangy dressing, creating a gourmet dinner experience. Crispy edges and juicy interior promise a delightful meal that you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Proteins:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Cheese:

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) shredded Parmesan cheese

Seasonings and Herbs:

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Caesar salad dressing
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F, creating an ideal cooking environment for succulent chicken.
  2. Arrange chicken breasts in a single layer within a spacious baking dish, ensuring even exposure.
  3. Generously drench the chicken with Caesar dressing, allowing the creamy mixture to cascade over each piece.
  4. Liberally dust the surface with a harmonious blend of grated Parmesan cheese, fragrant parsley, freshly cracked black pepper, and aromatic garlic powder.
  5. Transfer the prepared dish into the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, monitoring until the chicken reaches a perfect internal temperature and displays a golden-brown exterior.
  6. Remove from oven and let rest momentarily, allowing juices to redistribute and intensify flavor.
  7. Plate the chicken immediately while piping hot, presenting a restaurant-quality dish that promises to tantalize taste buds with its rich, creamy texture and robust seasoning.

Notes

  • Choose high-quality, boneless chicken breasts for the most tender results.
  • Pat chicken dry before adding dressing to help seasoning stick better and create a crispy exterior.
  • For a lighter version, use low-fat Caesar dressing and reduce cheese quantity.
  • Gluten-free option: Verify Caesar dressing ingredients are gluten-free or make homemade dressing.
