Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Combine breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
- Coat each chicken breast with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing it on well.
- Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Assembly
- While the chicken is baking, mix chopped Romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing in a bowl.
- Once the chicken is done, let it cool slightly before slicing.
- Assemble the sandwich by placing crispy chicken on the bread, adding a scoop of Caesar salad on top, and finishing with another slice of bread.
