Ingredients

¼ oz granulated garlic
¾ oz Parmesan Milk
10 oz pkg chicken breast strips
2 oz basil pesto Milk
1 romaine heart
1½ oz Caesar dressing EggFishMilkSoy
How to make it
1
Make croutons. Preheat broiler with a rack in the upper third. Cut or tear rolls into ¾-inch pieces; add to a rimmed baking sheet. Generously drizzle with oil and season with salt, pepper, and ½ teaspoon granulated garlic; toss to coat. Broil on upper oven rack until golden brown, shaking sheet halfway through cooking time, 2–4 minutes (watch closely as broilers vary).
2
Make dressing. Finely grate half of the Parmesan into a large bowl. Stir in Caesar dressing. Set aside for step 4.
3
CHICKEN VARIATION. Pat chicken dry. Season all over with salt and pepper. Toss in a medium bowl with pesto until evenly coated. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add chicken in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir and cook until cooked through, about 2 minutes more.
4
Make salad & serve. Halve lettuce lengthwise, then slice crosswise, discarding end. Add lettuce and croutons to bowl with dressing and toss well. Serve Caesar salad topped with pesto chicken. Using a vegetable peeler, shave remaining Parmesan over top. Enjoy!
