Method

DRINKS

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and minced anchovy fillets (or paste) until smooth.

  2. 2

    Emulsify dressing

    Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking vigorously to form a creamy emulsion. Whisk in grated Parmesan and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Prepare greens and chicken

    Rinse and thoroughly dry romaine; chop into bite-sized pieces. Season chicken lightly with salt and pepper and grill until cooked through (internal 165°F / 74°C); rest 5 minutes and slice.

  4. 4

    Assemble salad

    In a large bowl, toss romaine with dressing until leaves are evenly coated. Add croutons and toss lightly.

  5. 5

    Add protein and cheese

    Toss in sliced grilled chicken and shaved Parmesan cheese; lightly fold to distribute.

  6. 6

    Finish and serve

    Garnish with extra Parmesan if desired. Serve Caesar salad immediately, with lemon wedges on the side.
