Equipment
- Oven Preheat to 375°F (190°C)
- 9x13-inch baking dish Spray with cooking spray
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup Caesar dressing
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- Chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Remember, Caesar dressing can be salty, so use salt sparingly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Caesar dressing and sour cream. This mixture will add a creamy layer of flavor to your chicken.
- Coat the chicken breasts thoroughly with the Caesar dressing mixture on both sides, ensuring every bite is flavorful.
- Place the chicken in the prepared baking dish and spoon any remaining dressing mixture over the top for extra flavor.
- Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the chicken. This will create a delicious, cheesy topping.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. If your chicken breasts are on the thicker side, consider adding an additional 5 to 10 minutes to the baking time.
- For that perfect golden cheese topping, switch to broil for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Once cooked, sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving for a touch of color and freshness.
Notes
For a golden, bubbly cheese topping, broiling at the end is key. Adjust the baking time based on the thickness of your chicken breasts for perfectly cooked chicken.
