This Chicken Caesar Sandwich has toasted garlic bread, crunchy lettuce, creamy Caesar dressing, and juiciest chicken. This is pretty simple to make and so good.
I like salads, but I LOVE sandwiches. This Chicken Caesar Sandwich has all the flavors I love from a Caesar salad - juicy chicken, fresh lettuce, creamy Caesar dressing, and crispy garlic bread.
You'll want the chicken breast to be ½ inches thick so they can cook all the way through on a skillet without burning. The first step is cutting the chicken breast in half, then using a rolling pin, a can, or a meat pounder to pound out any sections that are over ½ inches thick.
I wanted to keep things simple and light, so I used a premade light creamy Caesar dressing (Newman's brand). I really like that dressing, and it makes dinner so much easier.
