Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 9×13 pan. Set aside.
In a small bowl, stir together Caesar dressing, sour cream, parmesan, garlic powder, and pepper.
1 cup Caesar dressing, ⅓ cup sour cream, ½ cup grated parmesan, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon pepper
Place chicken breasts in the prepared dish.
Spread Caesar mixture evenly over top of the chicken breasts.
Bake for about 30–40 minutes, depending on thickness, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Sprinkle panko on top for the last 5–7 minutes.
½ cup panko bread crumbs
Let the chicken sit for about 5-10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Chicken: You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs; however, you will need to increase the cooking time accordingly.
Caesar dressing: I use Ken's Caesar dressing. However, you can use your favorite Caesar dressing in this recipe.
Sour cream: I recommend using either regular or low-fat sour cream but not using fat-free. Plain Greek yogurt will also work.
Panko breadcrumbs: You can omit the breadcrumbs if you prefer.
