Start by preparing the chicken Caesar salad recipe.

Marinate the chicken breast in extra virgin olive oil and season with salt.

Cook the marinated chicken in a frying pan over medium-high heat for about 10 to 15 minutes until cooked through.

Set the cooked chicken aside to cool.

Prepare the croutons by taking white bread, adding salt and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and mixing well.

Place the bread in an air fryer for about 10 to 20 minutes until crispy, depending on the temperature.

For the dressing, mix 1 cup of mayonnaise and 125 grams of cream in a bowl.

Add salt, white pepper, garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1 tablespoon of mustard paste to the mixture and mix well.

Refrigerate the dressing for a while to keep it cold.

Chop the iceberg lettuce and set it aside.

In a bowl, add the iceberg lettuce and pour the dressing over it, adjusting the amount of dressing to your preference.

Slice the cooked chicken and distribute it over the salad.

Top the salad with croutons and optionally sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
