Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup Caesar salad dressing
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 slices of bread
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the pan: Heat a pan over medium heat to prepare for toasting the sandwiches later on.
- Combine the ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the shredded chicken, Caesar salad dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, diced tomatoes, chopped fresh parsley, and black pepper.
- Mix thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients together until the mixture is well combined and evenly coated with the dressing.
- Prepare the bread base: Arrange 4 slices of bread on a clean surface to build the sandwiches.
- Assemble the filling: Evenly divide the chicken Caesar salad mixture among the 4 slices of bread.
- Add lettuce topping: Place a handful of chopped romaine lettuce on top of the chicken mixture on each slice.
- Complete the sandwiches: Cover each with the remaining 4 slices of bread to form complete sandwiches.
- Toast the sandwiches: Place the sandwiches in the preheated pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the filling is warmed through.
- Serve: Remove from the pan and serve hot for the best flavor and texture experience.
Notes
- You can use any type of bread, but a sturdy bread like sourdough or ciabatta works best to hold the filling.
- For a crispier texture, consider buttering the outside of the bread slices before toasting.
- To make it low calorie, opt for a light Caesar dressing or reduce the amount used.
- Leftover sandwich halves can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 1 day.
- Optional additions include adding a slice of tomato or some crisp bacon for extra flavor.
