Ingredients

  • 1 chicken fillet
  • Flour, beaten egg and breadcrumbs (panko works great)
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato (optional)
  • For the Caesar dressing: 1 tbsp avocado or homemade mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • Mustard
  • Salt and pepper
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Olive oil
  • Grated Parmesan
  • For the croutons: sandwich bread, crusts removed, cubed, with olive oil

Instructions

  1. Toss the bread cubes with olive oil and bake 10–12 minutes until golden and crisp.
  2. Whisk the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, Parmesan, salt and pepper into a creamy dressing.
  3. Coat the chicken in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing so the crust adheres.
  4. Pan-fry in a little oil until deeply golden on both sides and cooked through. Rest, then slice.
  5. Toss the lettuce with the dressing, top with the crispy chicken, croutons, tomato and a final snow of Parmesan.
