Ingredients

You will need all of these ingredients to prepare a healthy and delicious Caesar Salad:

Dressing

2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1 garlic clove minced
2 anchovies
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 lemon for juice
1 tsp black pepper
1⁄2 cup olive oil

Salad

4 hearts of romaine lettuce
2 English muffins, split
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (6–8 oz each)
Olive oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
¼ cup black or green olives pitted and chopped
¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
¼ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

1. Before you start, preheat the grill.
2. Add all the dressing ingredients to a food Pick processor except for olive oil and blend them properly. Slowly drizzle the oil into the processor.
3. Cut the romaine lettuce down from the middle lengthwise. Leave the root end intact so that it holds leaves together.
4. Apply olive oil to the romaine, English muffins, and chicken and further season it with salt and pepper.
5. While the grill is hot, place the oiled chicken and cook it for 4 to 5 minutes from both sides until it looks firm and caramelized. Remove the chicken from the grill and keep it aside to rest.
6. Now it’s time to grill the lettuce for 1 to 2 minutes to make it lightly char and wilt the leaves. Don’t forget the English muffins. Grill them until they turn brown and crispy.
7. Take the chicken and slice it into thin strips.
8. Chop the muffins into bite-size pieces.
9. Now that everything is cooked, bring the dressing, chicken and muffins together to be served.
10. Take a plate and place everything.
11. Add olives and sun-dried tomatoes over individual lettuce halves. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with cheese.
12. Voila! Enjoy this healthy meal.
