Juicy Caesar Chicken (Printable)

Baked chicken breasts in creamy Caesar dressing with parmesan, garlic, and parsley—easy, savory main.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

02 - 1 cup Caesar salad dressing (creamy, good-quality)

03 - 1/2 cup sour cream

04 - 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

05 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

06 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder

07 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

08 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

02 - Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels and arrange in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

03 - In a medium mixing bowl, blend Caesar dressing, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

04 - Spread the sauce evenly over the chicken breasts to fully coat.

05 - Evenly sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the sauced chicken.

06 - Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

07 - Remove chicken from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

08 - Serve hot, accompanied by desired side dishes.

01 -

The sauce soaks right into the chicken, giving you tender bites with creamy richness you usually only get in restaurants.
Cleanup is minimal, so you get all the flavor without weekday chaos—this has saved me countless times.

02 -

If you skip drying the chicken, the sauce slips right off—this one needs a little patience up front.
Using freshly grated parmesan instead of the pre-grated kind turned a decent bake into something craveable and swoon-worthy.

03 -

Invest in a good digital thermometer—the confidence boost is real and every kitchen deserves it.
Warming the Caesar dressing gently (just a few seconds in the microwave) makes the sauce blend silkier and coats the chicken better.
