Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • to taste salt and pepper for seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup Caesar dressing store-bought or homemade
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 pound asparagus spears trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  • In a large oven-proof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden. Remove the skillet from heat.
  • Pour Caesar dressing over each piece of chicken and sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly on top.
  • Add asparagus around the chicken in the skillet. Sprinkle garlic powder over the asparagus and add a little extra Parmesan if desired.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
  • Remove from oven and let rest briefly. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken and asparagus, and serve hot.

Notes

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a few sprigs of thyme or rosemary to the skillet with the asparagus. Serve with a side of roasted potatoes or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
