Crispy Schnitzel Caesar Salad
Elevate your salad game with our traditionally breaded Chicken Schnitzel in this take on a classic Caesar. The creaminess of a homemade Caesar dressing contrasts beautifully with the crispy chicken and crunchy lettuce. The whole dish is ready in minutes, great for when you’re in a time crunch, or have other dishes to prepare. Equal parts indulgent and nourishing, it makes for a perfect lunch or accompaniment to a larger dinner spread. Remember to top with extra grated Parmesan to take it up another level!

1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 small clove garlic, minced
4 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp grainy mustard
¼ tsp anchovy paste or Worcestershire sauce
Pinch each salt and pepper
¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
8 cups torn romaine lettuce
1 cup croutons
Directions
Prepare schnitzel and bacon according to package directions, draining bacon on paper towel. Crumble or chop bacon and slice schnitzel.
Meanwhile, in large bowl whisk together mayo, garlic, lemon juice, mustard, anchovy paste salt and pepper. Whisk in ½ cup of the cheese.
Add lettuce, croutons and bacon to dressing; toss to coat. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Top each serving with a sliced Schnitzel.
Tips:
You can substitute some or all of the romaine lettuce for baby kale, if desired. Or make a twist on a classic Caeser salad combination, and pair the salad with our Pork Schnitzel instead!
Hold back some of the dressing and drizzle over the chicken, if desired.
