Instructions
Preparation Steps
Start by grilling or searing the chicken breasts until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side. Once done, let them rest before slicing them into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the garlic bread. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Mix melted butter with minced garlic, then brush the mixture onto the ciabatta slices.
Place the bread on a baking sheet and toast it in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, sliced chicken, croutons, and Caesar dressing. Toss everything together until nicely coated.
Serve the salad topped with grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy it alongside the warm garlic bread!
