Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.5 lbs)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 sandwich rolls (brioche or crusty)

Instructions

  1. Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness.
  2. Set up a breading station: whisk 2 eggs with salt and pepper in one bowl; place panko breadcrumbs in another bowl.
  3. Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat with panko.
  4. Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken for 6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Let chicken rest on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  6. Assemble sandwiches by spreading Caesar dressing on rolls and layering with crispy chicken, romaine lettuce, and Parmesan cheese. Top with the other half of the roll.
