Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with non-stick spray or olive oil.

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the Caesar salad dressing, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
  • Spoon the Caesar mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Cooking

  • Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and bubbly.

Serving

Notes

For even more flavor, marinate the chicken in Caesar dressing for a few hours before cooking. Try adding some chopped spinach or artichokes to the sauce for extra texture and taste. If you’re looking for a crispy topping, broil the dish for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking time. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
