Here’s a simple and flavorful Caesar Chicken 🍗🥗 — juicy chicken baked in creamy Caesar dressing with Parmesan and herbs:
🧄 Caesar Chicken
Ingredients (serves 4)
-
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
-
1 cup Caesar salad dressing (creamy style)

1 tsp garlic powder
-
1/2 tsp black pepper
-
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions

Preheat oven: 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish.
-
Prepare sauce: In a bowl, mix Caesar dressing, sour cream (if using), 1/2 cup Parmesan, garlic powder, and pepper.
-
Assemble: Place chicken in baking dish. Pour sauce mixture over chicken, coating evenly.
-
Top & bake: Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan on top. Bake 30–35 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).

Mix in a little mozzarella with the Parmesan for extra melty cheese.
Would you like me to also give you a one-pan skillet version (where chicken is seared first, then simmered in Caesar sauce)?
