3. STEP 3

   

   Pour a little vegetable oil into the frying pan, add a peeled and crushed clove of garlic. Add sliced ​​bread and stir. Fry the croutons over low heat until crispy. They need to be stirred from time to time. If the garlic starts to burn, remove it. That is why it does not need to be chopped very much. How to choose a frying pan and oil for frying, read articles on these topics. There are links at the end of the recipe.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the chicken fillet into small medallions of the same size. Salt and pepper them.

6. STEP 6

   

   Prepare ingredients for making sauce. Please note that the taste of the future sauce directly depends on the ingredients chosen for it. Choose the mustard you like, but preferably not very spicy so that it does not overwhelm the taste of the other ingredients. Cheese and butter must be of high quality and tasty. Choose a fresh egg.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the egg in a glass and pour boiling water over it. Keep it like this for a minute or two. This way it will not be cooked, but will be well disinfected.

8. STEP 8

   

   Break the prepared egg into a mixing glass, add Parmesan, mustard, sugar, salt, butter and chopped garlic.

9. STEP 9

   

   Whisk all ingredients in short pulses to form a sauce. It will not be very thick, but still a little thicker than water.

10. STEP 10

    

    Cut the cooled fillet into small pieces.

11. STEP 11

    

    Tear the lettuce leaves into the bottom of the plate. Pour the sauce over the salad.

    Arrange chicken pieces and chopped tomatoes.

13. STEP 13

    

    Place crackers on top. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan.

I made a classic Caesar salad with chicken for my son. This is his favorite salad 🥗, and it turned out great with homemade sauce! For the salad, I used lettuce leaves. I fried the chicken fillet in a frying pan, cooled it and cut it into strips. I grated the cheese on a fine grater. I cut the loaf pieces into small cubes and fried them in a frying pan. The tomatoes I had were not cherry tomatoes, but regular ones, and I cut them into small cubes. For the sauce, beat an egg, add mustard, sugar, salt, butter, and a little cheese. I beat everything lightly and added 1 tsp of my own. lemon juice. A delicious, beautiful salad that is perfect for a family dinner, and can also be served on a holiday table. Thanks to the author katushafin for the idea with the sauce and I recommend trying this salad😊

One of the recipes for the holiday table is Caesar salad with chicken, which I came across in a search by accident, and I decided to make it for myself as a snack. I prepared the ingredients - finely grated the cheese, removed the chicken meat from the fried chicken thigh, took lettuce leaves from a ready-made mixture of different salads - I really liked the variety of different salad flavors in one package. I cut the cherry tomatoes in half and made the sauce and croutons for the Caesar salad myself. For the sauce, I mixed homemade mayonnaise and sour cream, and for the croutons, I cut the “country” bread into cubes, mixed it with universal seasoning, grated garlic and vegetable oil, and dried it in the oven on a piece of foil for about 10 minutes. I put all the ingredients on a plate, poured over the sauce and stirred. Cool and quick recipe, I recommend it.

I made it, but without the cherry tomatoes. I couldn't find them at the last moment. I hoped that they would be in a store near my house, but alas((Still, the salad turned out very tasty even without tomatoes! I ate it with pleasure, not a crumb was left! Thank you for the recipe!

Thanks for the classic Caesar recipe! It turned out great. I cooked it several times, and made a few modifications: 1) I used “lettuce” in the salad; 2) I added 20 ml of water and mustard to the recipe for Caesar sauce, not two teaspoons, but one full one. The rest is according to the recipe.
