Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad with Creamy Garlic Dressing
Experience a fresh twist on the classic Caesar salad with grilled chicken, crisp romaine, and a homemade creamy garlic dressing. The salad is topped with a light sprinkle of Parmesan and crunchy whole wheat croutons, creating a balanced dish that delivers on both flavor and nutrition.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces grilled chicken breast
2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
2 tbsp shredded Parmesan cheese
3 tbsp nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 anchovy fillet
1/2 cup whole wheat croutons
1 clove minced garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt & black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Grill for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and nicely charred. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into strips.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to form the creamy garlic dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded romaine lettuce with the anchovy (mash it into the dressing or chop finely), then drizzle a portion of the dressing over the lettuce and toss gently to coat.
Plate the dressed lettuce, top with the grilled chicken slices, and sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese over the salad.
Add the whole wheat croutons on top for a satisfying crunch, then drizzle any remaining dressing over the salad as desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious blend of smoky chicken, crisp greens, and zesty creamy garlic dressing.
