Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 heads Romaine lettuce
- 2 Chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Store-bought Caesar dressing
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Croutons
- 1 Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
Rub the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the lettuce and toss gently to coat.
Add the Caesar dressing to the bowl and toss again to evenly distribute the dressing.
Top the salad with the grilled chicken slices, Parmesan cheese, and croutons.
Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra splash of citrus flavor. Enjoy!
