Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz chicken breast about 1 chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 heads romaine lettuce about 4 cups torn romaine lettuce

Parmesan Crispies

  • 1/2 cup shaved parmigianno reggiano
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • pinch garlic powder

Ceasar-ish Dressing

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 350°. In a small baking dish, drizzle the chicken breast with olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165° in the thickest part of the breast.
  • Meanwhile, shave the parmigianno reggiano. Whisk it together with black pepper and garlic powder. Evenly spread on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 6-8 minutes in the same oven as the chicken, until lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.
  • Make the dressing by whisking together the dijon, olive oil, white wine vinegar, black pepper, salt and lemon juice until emulsified. Using a small fork in a bowl works well for this or shake in a jar. Taste test and add more salt or pepper as needed. Tastes can vary based on the mustard you use.
  • Wash and pat dry the romaine. Tear into pieces and transfer to large mixing bowl. Toss lettuce with dressing. Divide and transfer to serving dishes.
  • Thinly slice chicken breast. Place onto lettuce. Top with parmesan crispies and additional lemon wedges if desired.
