Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 ciabatta rolls
  • 2 hearts romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Caesar Salad Dressing

  • 4 anchovy fillets
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Instructions
 

Make the Caesar Dressing

  • Mash the anchovies with a fork in a medium sized bowl. Whisk in the remaining ingredients until smooth. Set aside.

Make the Chicken Cutlets

  • Using a sharp knife, slice the chicken breasts crosswise so that you have 4-5 thinner pieces.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Pour flour into a shallow bowl, then beaten egg into a second bowl and bread crumbs into a third bowl.
  • Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then beaten egg mixture, then breadcrumbs. Place into the skillet. Cook until golden on each side, flipping after 6-7 minutes. Do not crowd the pan. Repeat the process with remaining cutlets.
  • Remove from the pan to rest on a wire rack.

Assemble the Sandwiches

  • Rinse and chop the romaine lettuce. Toss chopped romaine with some of the Caesar dressing to coat. Spread more Caesar dressing onto both insides of each ciabatta roll.
  • Place chicken cutlet onto the bottom of each ciabatta roll and top with some of the Caesar salad. Press the top of each ciabatta roll onto each sandwich. Enjoy!
