Description

Deliciously baked chicken breasts topped with creamy Caesar dressing, provolone cheese, and crispy croutons for a flavorful meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breast (about 1 pounds)
  • ⅔ cup creamy Caesar dressing
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese (grated divided)
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 cup croutons (your favorite type)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9”x13” baking dish with non-stick spray.
  2. In a bowl crush the croutons and add the melted butter and mix together. Set aside.
  3. Mix the Caesar dressing with ½ of the parmesan cheese in a second mixing bowl. Set aside.
  4. Place the chicken breast in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Spread the Caesar dressing mixture over each chicken breast. Place a slice of provolone cheese on each chicken breast. Finish with the chicken with the crouton topping.
  5. Bake at 375 degrees for about 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through to 165 degree internal temperature. If the croutons start to brown too much you can cover loosely with foil.
  6. Top with the remaining parmesan cheese and serve.

Notes

  • Feel free to customize the croutons according to your taste.
