Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare a casserole dish.
2. Pound the chicken breasts if they’re not thin and place them in a casserole dish. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

4. In a small bowl, combine crushed croutons with melted butter.

To reduce fat, use light Caesar dressing and part-skim parmesan.
Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat nicely in the oven or microwave.
