Grilled Balsamic Chicken Caesar Salad

Cultural Context

The Caesar salad originated in Tijuana, Mexico, in the 1920s, created by Italian immigrant Caesar Cardini. It has since become a staple in American cuisine, often featuring grilled protein like chicken for added heartiness. The combination of crisp romaine, savory dressing, and grilled chicken makes it a favorite for lunch or dinner, with many variations found globally.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: pecorino cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and provides a cheesy flavor.

croutons

🥗Healthier: toasted whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: homemade croutons

Homemade croutons can be made from leftover bread, reducing waste.

1

Harvest baby gem romaine lettuce, radishes, cherry tomatoes, and baby carrot from the garden.

2

Wash the harvested vegetables thoroughly.

3

Chop the lettuce on a deep diagonal and thinly slice the radishes using a mandolin.

4

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and quarter the baby carrot.

5

Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and lemon juice, then drizzle with olive oil and rub it in.

6

Pan roast the seasoned chicken breast for about 10 minutes, covering it to steam roast until cooked through.

7

In a jar, combine a quarter cup of Greek yogurt, a quarter cup of mayonnaise, one teaspoon of Dijon mustard, one teaspoon of anchovy paste, one clove of minced garlic, one teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, juice from half a lemon, a quarter cup of Parmesan cheese, and a dash of black pepper. Mix and shake well.

8

Taste the dressing and adjust if needed.

9

In a large bowl, layer the chopped lettuce and arugula, followed by the radishes, tomatoes, sliced chicken breast, shaved Parmesan, optional red onions, and avocado slices.

10

Instead of croutons, add Parmesan crisp crackers and garnish with baby carrot tops.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and mix everything together.
