1. Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish: Setting the Stage for Baking

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Grease Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. This will prevent the chicken from sticking and ensure easy cleanup.

2. Prepare the Chicken: Seasoning for Flavor

1. Pat Dry: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps the seasonings and coating adhere better.
2. Season: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Use your hands to rub the seasonings into the chicken.

3. Coat the Chicken: Building Layers of Flavor and Texture

1. Spread Caesar Dressing: Spread a generous amount of Caesar dressing (about ¼ cup per breast) evenly over each chicken breast, coating both sides.
2. Sprinkle with Parmesan: Sprinkle each chicken breast with grated Parmesan cheese, dividing the ½ cup evenly among the four breasts.
3. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over each chicken breast, pressing gently to help them adhere to the dressing and cheese.

4. Bake the Chicken: Achieving Tenderness and a Golden Crust

1. Drizzle with Oil: Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top of each breaded chicken breast.
2. Place in Baking Dish: Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.
3. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.
   • Check for Doneness: The chicken is done when it’s cooked through, the juices run clear, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). The breadcrumb coating should be golden brown and crispy.

5. Serve and Enjoy: Savoring the Tenderness and Flavor

1. Rest: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after baking. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken even more tender.
2. Serve Hot: Serve the Melt In Your Mouth Caesar Chicken hot, with your favorite sides.
