Caesar Chicken

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• Salt and black pepper, to taste

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp dried Italian herbs (optional)

• ½ cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)

• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped (optional, for serving)

• Croutons (optional, for garnish)

• Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

1. Prep the chicken: Pat chicken dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian herbs.

2. Cook the chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken 6–7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F / 74°C). Remove from skillet and let rest for 3–5 minutes.

3. Top with Caesar flavor: Spread a generous layer of Caesar dressing over each chicken breast. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

4. Optional broil: For a bubbly, golden top, place the chicken under the broiler 1–2 minutes until cheese is lightly browned.

5. Serve: Serve on a bed of chopped Romaine lettuce, topped with croutons and an extra drizzle of Caesar dressing. Garnish with lemon wedges.
