Prepare the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme on both sides.
Cook the Mushrooms:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are softened and have released their moisture, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the Sauce:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Caesar dressing, sour cream, and grated Parmesan cheese until well mixed.
Assemble the Bake:
- In a large baking dish, arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer.
- Spread the cooked mushrooms evenly over the chicken.
- Pour the Caesar dressing mixture over the chicken and mushrooms, spreading it out to cover evenly.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.

Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- If desired, turn on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes to achieve a golden brown top.

Garnish and Serve:
