Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut your bread slices into cubes and toss them in a bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned bread cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Let them cool before using.
- While the croutons are baking, grill or cook your chicken breast until fully cooked and juicy. Let it cool slightly before slicing it into strips.
- Wash and chop your romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.
- Add the sliced grilled chicken, shredded Parmesan cheese, and homemade croutons to the bowl.
- Drizzle Caesar dressing over the top, toss everything together until well coated, and prepare to feast!
Notes
Don't have stale bread for the croutons? No problem! You can dry out fresh bread cubes in the oven for a few minutes before seasoning and baking.
Feel free to get creative with your salad toppings! Add some cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, or even a sprinkle of bacon for extra flavor.
Want to make this salad vegetarian? Swap out the chicken for grilled tofu or chickpeas for a protein-packed alternative.
