Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 cup croutons
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • For the Dressing:
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  4. Stir in lemon juice and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.

  6. Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.
  7. Garnish with remaining Parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • For an extra touch, grill lemon halves and squeeze fresh juice over the salad before serving.
  • You can make the dressing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like cherry tomatoes or red onion.
