Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless
  • skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
  • 4 sandwich buns or ciabatta rolls
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce
  • chopped
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (extra for topping)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In three separate bowls, set up a breading station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Coat each chicken breast in flour, then dip into the eggs, and finally dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the coated chicken breasts and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
  6. While the chicken is baking, prepare the sandwich buns by lightly toasting them if desired.
  7. Once the chicken is done, assemble the sandwiches by spreading Caesar dressing on the buns, adding chopped romaine lettuce, and placing the crispy chicken on top.
  8. Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese on top before closing the sandwiches and serving.

Notes

Feel free to customize this sandwich by adding additional toppings like tomatoes or bacon. For extra crunch, consider using panko breadcrumbs.
