Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 slices of your favorite bread sourdough, ciabatta, or whole grain work great
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup croutons crushed
  • 2 slices of bacon cooked and crumbled (optional)
  • Lemon wedges for garnish

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for a few minutes.
  • Slice the chicken into thin strips.

Step 2: Prepare the Bread

  • Toast the bread slices on the grill for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are crispy and have grill marks.

Step 3: Assemble the Salad

  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons.
  • Toss the salad gently to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.

Step 4: Build the Sandwich

  • Lay out the toasted bread slices on a clean surface.
  • Place a generous amount of salad on two of the bread slices.
  • Top the salad with the sliced grilled chicken.
  • If using, sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the chicken.
  • Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  • Cut the sandwiches in half for easier handling.
  • Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
