You read this correctly. You can buy it pre made in the shop, but again because its Saturday of the long weekend we are taking easy simple classics and showing you the easy way of making or cooking them. I promise you can do this at home.
Ingredients
For the Salad:
- 1-2 heads of romaine lettuce, chopped or torn into bite sized pieces
- Chicken Breast (Left over or grilled)
- Grilled Bacon
- grated fresh Parmesan cheese–amount per personal preference
- croutons – amount per personal preference
For the Caesar Salad Dressing:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise (I used lite mayo)
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- pinch of sugar (to cut the acidity)
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
The Chicken
For the chicken if your cooking your own it’s a full chicken breast seasoned with salt and pepper in a 200°c oven for 40 minutes. When cooked and cooled cut into chunks.
Instructions
- In a large bowl put lettuce, chickens bacon. Sprinkle with desired amount of Parmesan cheese. I tend to like more rather than less, but everyone is different. Sprinkle a handful or two of croutons in. Set aside.
For the salad dressing:
- Put the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, anchovy paste, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese into a blender. Blitz for a few seconds.
- With the blender running (keep the lid on!) slowly drizzle in the olive oil to create an emulsion.
- Pour desired amount of dressing over salad. Toss. Serve immediately. Note: Depending on personal taste, the salad may not require the full amount of salad dressing. Serve any extra dressing on the side
