- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- Turn the oven to broil, and broil the chicken for an additional 2-4 minutes until golden brown.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is fully cooked – it should register 165°F (74°C) when inserted into the thickest part of the middle breast.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve with your favorite side dishes.
Notes:
- You can use any brand of Caesar salad dressing that you prefer.
- For a healthier option, you can use reduced-fat or light Caesar dressing.
- If you want to add a little more flavor, try marinating the chicken in the Caesar dressing for a few hours before baking.
- If the chicken breasts are very large, you can cut them in half or into smaller pieces to ensure even cooking.
- This recipe is also delicious with grated mozzarella or a blend of Italian cheeses instead of Parmesan.
