Ingredients & Substitutions

Chicken: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts to cut into cubes. You could also use boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Just be sure the chicken is fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F, before continuing with the recipe.

Sour Cream: Sour cream is added for a bit of tanginess and creaminess, complementing the Caesar dressing.

Caesar Salad Dressing: If you don’t have any on hand, make your own Caesar dressing to use!

Parmesan Cheese: For the best results, use freshly grated parmesan cheese. It melts over the chicken for added richness and flavor.

Can I Cook The Chicken Ahead Of Time?

Absolutely! You can get a head start on the recipe by cooking the chicken ahead of time, using leftover shredded chicken, or rotisserie chicken. If using chicken that has already been cooked, simply add it with the other ingredients to warm everything up. Easy peasy!
