Ingredients

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 6–8 pieces)
1 cup creamy Caesar dressing
½ cup sour cream room temperature
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
1 cup croutons lightly crushed
3 tablespoons butter melted
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried parsley optional garnish

Method

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Pat chicken dry, season both sides with salt and pepper, and arrange in a single layer in the dish.
Whisk together sour cream, Caesar dressing, and flour until smooth.
Spread the sauce evenly over the chicken.
In a separate bowl, mix crushed croutons, melted butter, and ½ cup Parmesan cheese.
Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over the chicken, then evenly add the buttery crouton mixture on top.
