Description

This Juicy Baked Caesar Chicken with Parmesan Sauce is a flavorful and easy-to-make dinner featuring tender boneless chicken breasts baked with a creamy Caesar dressing, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese sauce. Perfect for a weeknight meal, it combines the richness of classic Caesar flavors with a golden, bubbly topping that keeps the chicken juicy and delicious.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Creamy Parmesan Caesar Sauce

  • 1 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or oil to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  2. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts evenly on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, spaced slightly apart.
  3. Make the Creamy Sauce: In a small mixing bowl, combine Caesar dressing, sour cream, and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a rich and creamy sauce.
  4. Coat the Chicken: Spread the creamy sauce evenly over the top of each chicken breast, making sure every piece is generously coated to infuse flavor and moisture during baking.
  5. Bake the Chicken: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). The sauce will become bubbly, and the chicken will develop a golden crust on top.
  6. Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes to retain its juices. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve with your favorite side dishes.

Notes

  • Ensure chicken breasts are of similar size for even cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to verify the internal temperature hits 165°F (74°C) to guarantee safety.
  • Substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist.
  • Serve with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • For extra crispiness, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking, but watch closely to avoid burning.
