Baked Chicken Caesar with Parmesan Glaze
Ingredients:
– 4 chicken breasts (about 1 kg)
– 1 cup Caesar dressing
– 100 g grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 cup breadcrumbs
– 2 tablespoons lemon juice
– 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Prepare the chicken: Rinse the chicken breasts and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the breasts on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Mix the glaze: In a bowl, combine the Caesar dressing, garlic powder, lemon juice, and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. If desired, add a tablespoon of olive oil for extra flavor.
4. Coat the chicken: Pour the Caesar dressing mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure they are evenly coated.
5. Add the breadcrumbs: Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the dressing-coated chicken breasts. Then, top with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. You can use a food thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
7. Garnish and serve: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Additional tips:
– You can serve this dish with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced lunch or dinner.
– If you prefer a more intense flavor, you can marinate the chicken in Caesar dressing for a few hours before cooking.
– Be careful not to overcook the chicken, as this may dry out the chicken. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the breasts.
