2 lbs chicken breast boneless, skinless, thin (3-4 Chicken Breasts)
6 Tbsp creamy caesar dressing
salt and pepper
6 slices provolone cheese
1 cup Caesar style croutons roughly crushed
1 Tbsp butter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375˚F.
Place the chicken breast flat in a 9x13-inch or 7x11-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
Spread some of the creamy caesar dressing over each chicken breast. Season with salt and pepper.
Place the sliced provolone over the chicken to cover. Break some slices in half if needed.
In a small bowl, mix the croutons crumbs with the melted butter to coat.
Spread the crouton crumbs over the cheese layer.
Bake on the middle rack at 375˚F for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (reachs internal temperature of 165 degrees) and the crumbs are golden brown. If the top of the crumbs become too browned, loosely cover with foil for the remainder.
