Creamy Caesar Dressing
Make the creamy caesar dressing...
Combine 1 1/2 cups of mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of dijon mustard, 3 crushed cloves of garlic, 2 anchovy filets, a pinch of salt and black pepper, 2/3 cup of finely shredded parmigiano reggiano and a pinch of cayenne pepper
Set 3/4 cup of dressing off to the side for this dish and transfer the remaining dressing into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator
Make the baked chicken...
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
Place 2 chicken breasts in a deep baking dish and season with garlic powder and onion powder
Combine 3/4 cup of creamy caesar dressing and 1/2 cup of sour cream and pour the mixture over the chicken
Sprinkle 3/4 cup of finely shredded parmigiano reggiano over the entire dish
Bake the chicken in a 375 degree oven for 35-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees
Turn the oven off and turn your high broiler on
Broil until the sauce is bubbly and the parmigiano reggiano is golden brown
Transfer the baking dish to a heat proof surface and allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before slicing
Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley and enjoy!
