Servings 4
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup creamy Caesar dressing I used Boathouse. You can also use a light option!
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Pound 4 boneless, skinless to an even 1/2-inch thickness.
- Pour 1 cup creamy Caesar dressing in a baking dish large enough to fit the chicken in a single layer. Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish, then flip them so that they are evenly coated with dressing.
- Bake until the chicken is golden-brown and cooked through (about 20 to 25 minutes.)
- Heat the broiler to high. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the chicken in an even layer.
- Broil until the cheese is melted and lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. If you don’t have a broiler don’t worry, you can just bake until cheese is melted!
- Serve the chicken garnished with the parsley if using.

Notes
Storage:
Place any leftover Chicken Caesar Bake in a zip top bag or airtight container and keep in the fridge, where it should stay fresh for 2 to 3 days. This is also a great recipe to prep in advance. You can marinate up to 1 to 2 days ahead of time. If you're meal prepping, you can freeze cooked chicken for up to a 1 month! I'd recommend storing in an airtight zip top bag before freezing.
