Chicken caesar salad

Classic yet delicious chicken Caesar salad created in four easy steps. With crunchy croutons, shredded parmesan and fresh homemade dressing this really is salad perfection.

Ingredients

1/2, skin on barbecued chicken

1/2 cup caesar salad dressing

2 sliced baby cos lettuce

Method

1.Remove chicken from bones, keeping skin attached. Slice breast and thigh roughly and chop all leftover flesh.

2.In a serving bowl, toss half Caesar dressing through cos leaves.

3.Add chicken to salad. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Serve topped with dill sprigs, if liked.

Spoon this salad into crusty bread rolls for an easy picnic lunch. Add prepared croutons, crispy bacon and chopped hard-boiled eggs, if desired. For a healthier version, poach chicken breast in a saucepan of simmering water with added onion and herbs. Simmer 5-6 minutes then set aside, off the heat, at least 5 minutes.
