Melt in Your Mouth Chicken!

There’s nothing worse than dry and overcooked chicken. You won’t have that problem with this juicy recipe, because this melt in your mouth chicken is anything but dry. So moist, so creamy, so delicious! You’ll come out with the best chicken every time.

 

 

Creamy Caesar Chicken is the perfect EASY CHICKEN RECIPE to make for a crowd because you can spend time with friends instead of spending time in the kitchen.

 

 

 

This moist and tender chicken is as easy as smothering the chicken in caesar dressing and parmesan cheese. The parmesan helps to thicken the sauce and it all bakes down to cheesy creamy perfection.

 

 

No need to even season the chicken because the caesar dressing already has enough flavor to go around. However, some simple garlic, salt and pepper would be perfect. I of course used my beloved garlic seasoning from Johnny’s.

 

 

You can make Caesar dressing…if you prefer to make your own. Most bottled products are fairly low in carbs.

 

SIMPLE STEPS TO FOLLOW:

• Just place the chicken thighs in a baking dish(I seared mine, but that is optional)

 

 

• Smother it in a Caesar dressing and sour cream mixture SO creamy

 

 

• Then bake chicken in the oven for about 30 minutes at 375°F.

 

 

• Broil the chicken at the end for just a couple of minutes

 

 

• Then cover it and let it rest before serving.

 

 

 

 

What I love most about this easy chicken recipe is that the Caesar sauce covers the chicken, allowing it to cook but protecting it from drying out. It helps to bake the most perfect, moist, flavorful chicken. Completely and utterly fool proof.

 

 

 

Serving Suggestions

This Caesar Chicken Recipe can be eaten on its own, served over rice, served with sides like potatoes for carb eaters, asparagus or broccoli….or shredded and turned into amazing tacos and more! The possibilities are endless.

 

 

How to Store and Reheat Leftovers

• If you have leftover chicken, store it in an airtight container in the fridge. It will last for 3-4 days, but if you want it to last longer, you can keep it in the freezer. Frozen leftovers will stay good for 2 to 3 months.
• To reheat your chicken, heat them in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until warm. You can also reheat them in the oven if you cover your baking dish with foil. Cook at 350°F until chicken is warm, then uncover the baking dish and broil for a few minutes.
