Easy Baked Caesar Chicken
Tender chicken, melty provolone, and tons of Caesar flavor come together in this quick and easy dinner topped with crushed Parmesan crisps for extra crunch.
Servings: 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 2-3 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 4 breasts)
- ½ cup Caesar dressing (Note 1)
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- ½ cup parmesan cheese shredded
- 2 ounces Parmesan cheese crisps crushed (Note 2)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Trim the chicken breasts and pound them to an even thickness (if needed), then place them in a greased baking dish.
- Spoon or brush the Caesar dressing over the top of each piece of chicken. Spoon dressing into a small bowl first to avoid contaminating the jar.
- Lay one slice of provolone cheese over each chicken breast, then sprinkle the shredded Parmesan on top.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F at the thickest part of the chicken. Thicker pieces may take a little longer.
- Optional Step: Before adding the Parmesan crisps, place the chicken under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to brown the cheese and create a golden, bubbly finish.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and sprinkle the crushed Parmesan crisps over the top.
Notes
Note 1: Use a creamy Caesar dressing, not a vinaigrette-style dressing. For low FODMAP option, make a homemade low FODMAP Caesar salad dressing.
Note 2: Use plain Parmesan cheese crisps that contain only Parmesan cheese! Skip flavored varieties.
Low FODMAP Notes: Low FODMAP ingredient information is based on the Monash University Food App and FODMAP Friendly App testing results.
