Grilled Chicken Caesar salad is such an easy concept for dinner, but what makes it truly divine is homemade dressing. Be sure to make plenty of dressing because next week I have another recipe using the homemade Caesar dressing. You will need about 1 cup for that recipe.
For a simple Chicken Caesar you will need chopped romaine lettuce; croutons; shredded Parmesan cheese; grilled chicken, slightly cooled and sliced thin; and of course the homemade dressing. Since the dressing is so strong you can use less than you would think. I usually start off with just a small bit on my salad and add more if needed.
