Instructions
Preparation
- Thinly slice the chicken breasts lengthwise to make thin chicken cutlets. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
- Place the eggs in a shallow plate or bowl. Stir together the breadcrumbs and parmesan in another plate or bowl.
- Heat 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Watch the heat the entire time.
- Dip each piece of chicken into the egg, then into the breadcrumbs, pressing gently so the crumbs adhere.
- Cook chicken 2 to 3 pieces at a time on each side until deeply golden, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Ensure internal temperature is 165 degrees F.
- To make the dressing, add garlic, yogurt, parmesan, mustard, vinegar, anchovy paste, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to a food processor or blender and blend until pureed.
- Place the romaine in a large bowl, toss with salt and pepper, and drizzle with caesar dressing. Toss well to coat.
- Assemble the sandwiches by placing a cutlet (or 2) on a bun, topping with caesar salad.
