Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup Caesar dressing (mayonnaise, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, lemon juice)
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, shredded or shaved
- 4 ciabatta or brioche buns

Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder; let rest for 10 minutes.
- Prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and the last with panko and dried herbs.
- Dip each chicken breast in flour, then in egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.
