Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the Caesar salad dressing, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder (if using), black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well-incorporated.
Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Spread the Caesar mixture evenly over the top of the chicken.
Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes for a crispy topping if desired.
Let the chicken rest briefly, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

Pairs perfectly with a fresh Caesar salad, roasted vegetables, or garlic bread. Consider a crisp white wine or lemon-infused iced tea as a beverage pairing.
