My husband can’t get enough of this dish—he begs for it every week

This Baked Caesar Chicken is a true low-effort, big-reward kind of dinner. The Caesar dressing pulls double duty as a marinade and sauce, keeping the chicken moist and flavorful, while a generous layer of Parmesan melts into a rich, golden crust you’ll want to scrape off the pan.

Baked Caesar Chicken

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1½ cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream (optional, for extra richness)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a baking dish lightly. Pound the chicken breasts to about 1-inch thickness so they cook evenly.
  2. Mix the Sauce:
    In a bowl, whisk together the Caesar dressing and sour cream (if using) until smooth and creamy.
  3. Season & Assemble:
    Season the chicken lightly with salt and pepper. Coat each piece with about 1 cup of the Parmesan, pressing it on gently, and arrange the chicken in the baking dish.
  4. Bake:
    Pour the Caesar mixture evenly over the chicken, then sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  5. Finish & Serve:
    Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after baking. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

Tips

  • Choose a good-quality Caesar dressing since it drives most of the flavor.
  • For a more golden, crispy topping, broil the chicken for the final 2–3 minutes.
