Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 large large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb total) Use thin chicken breasts for quicker cooking time.
  • 1 cup Caesar salad dressing Marinade the chicken for extra flavor.
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese Garnish with additional cheese if desired.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish.
  3. Pour the Caesar salad dressing over the chicken, making sure they are well coated.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese on top of the chicken.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  2. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve with fresh vegetables or a simple salad, rice, or mashed potatoes. If you have leftovers, let the chicken cool down completely and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days, or freeze for up to two months. Adding vegetables like broccoli or asparagus to the baking dish can enhance nutrition.
