Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Breasts

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet for uniform cooking.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow dishes, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast first in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

Make the Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare the Romaine

    Wash and dry the romaine lettuce, then chop into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 6

    Add Croutons and Cheese

    Add croutons and grated Parmesan cheese to the chopped romaine.

Prepare the Caesar Dressing

  1. 7

    Mix the Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and anchovy paste. Whisk until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 8

    Combine the Salad

    Pour the Caesar dressing over the romaine salad and toss until evenly coated.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Plate the dressed salad and top with the fried chicken breasts. Serve immediately.
