Herb-Grilled Chicken Caesar with Crispy Chickpea Croutons
Savor a bright twist on the classic Caesar salad with herb-grilled chicken breast, crisp romaine, and crunchy roasted chickpeas that mimic the texture of croutons. Finished with a light sprinkling of Parmesan and a creamy Caesar dressing, every bite is a refreshing balance of flavors and textures.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 cups Romaine Lettuce
1/2 cup Chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp Light Caesar Dressing
2 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs (chopped)
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Marinate the chicken breast by rubbing with olive oil, chopped mixed herbs, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked.
While the chicken is grilling, preheat the oven to 400°F for the crispy chickpea croutons. Toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and additional herbs if desired. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crisp.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce with the light Caesar dressing, making sure the leaves are evenly coated.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and add to the salad. Top with the roasted chickpeas and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Gently toss the salad to combine all flavors. Serve immediately and enjoy the blend of tender chicken, crisp greens, and crunchy chickpea croutons.
