Ingredients
Main Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Seasoned Dressing Blend
1 cup Caesar dressing
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Optional Garnish
Fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold all chicken breasts in a single layer.
Prepare Chicken
Place chicken breasts flat in the dish. If uneven in thickness, pound or butterfly to ensure even cooking.
Make the Sauce
In a bowl, stir together the Caesar dressing, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
Coat Chicken
Spread the dressing mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring each breast is fully coated.
Bake
Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (use a meat thermometer).
Broil (Optional)
For a golden top, broil for 2–3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
Rest and Serve
Let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm with rice, potatoes, pasta, or veggies.
Notes
Even Thickness = Even Cooking. Use a meat mallet or knife to pound thicker parts.
Want extra indulgence? Sprinkle more Parmesan over the top before baking.
Pairs beautifully with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.
