# Ingredients:
→ Chicken Prep
01 -
4 chicken breasts, no bones or skin
02 -
1 cup Caesar dressing, creamy style
03 -
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
04 -
1/2 cup breadcrumbs, panko works well but regular is fine too
05 -
1 tablespoon olive oil, and a bit for greasing the dish
→ Spices & Seasonings
06 -
1 teaspoon oregano, dried
07 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
08 -
Salt and black pepper depending on your taste
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 350°F (180°C). Coat your baking dish lightly with olive oil to keep things from sticking.
02 -
Sprinkle your chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano. Be sure to cover them really well for a great flavor base.
03 -
Coat each piece of chicken with a thick spread of Caesar dressing. After that, scatter Parmesan on top and finish it off with breadcrumbs for that crunchy topping.
04 -
Set your coated chicken in the baking dish. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top to help crisp it up, and bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden and the chicken is done.
05 -
Pull the chicken out and let it sit for a couple of minutes to keep the juices locked in. Slice it up and serve while it’s nice and warm.
# Notes:
01 -
Craving extra crunch? Turn the broiler on for 2-3 minutes at the end, but be careful—watch closely to avoid burning it.
02 -
Sprinkle on some freshly chopped parsley for a nice garnish and a fresh touch.
