Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Caesar salad croutons, divided
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 romaine hearts, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup Caesar salad dressing
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided

Directions

  1. Finely crush 1 cup croutons and place in a shallow bowl. In a large bowl, gently combine chicken, salt and pepper; mix lightly but thoroughly. With wet hands, shape chicken mixture into four 5-in. patties. Coat both sides with crouton crumbs.
  2. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook patties until lightly browned and a thermometer reads 165°, 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove to paper towel to drain. Cut each patty into 4-5 strips.
  3. In a large bowl, toss romaine with dressing and 1/4 cup cheese. Arrange on 4 individual serving plates. Top with chicken patty slices and remaining 1 cup whole croutons and 1/4 cup cheese. Serve with additional salad dressing.
