Description

A delicious and crispy chicken Caesar sandwich with tangy dressing and fresh toppings, perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup full-fat mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 5 chicken cutlets
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • Oil for frying
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup panko crumbs
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 romaine hearts, chopped
  • 1-2 French baguettes
  • Additional freshly grated Parmesan cheese for serving


Instructions

  1. Mix together all dressing ingredients: mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt until smooth and creamy. Reserve 4-5 tablespoons for the salad.
  2. Season chicken cutlets with salt and black pepper.
  3. Set up a breading station with flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and a mixture of panko crumbs, breadcrumbs, and spices in a third. Dip each chicken cutlet in flour, then in egg, and finally into breadcrumb mixture, pressing crumbs onto the chicken.
  4. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the breaded chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Remove cooked chicken and drain on paper towels.
  6. Slice French baguette and spread the reserved Caesar dressing inside.
  7. Layer on fried chicken cutlets, top with chopped romaine, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
  8. Serve immediately for the best crispy experience.

Notes

For best results, marinate chicken cutlets with seasoning for about 30 minutes before breading. Adjust spices in breadcrumbs to personal taste.
