- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- ½ cup creamy Caesar dressing
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 4 slices ciabatta or sourdough bread
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper; cook for 6-7 minutes per side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest.
- In the same skillet, add an additional tablespoon of butter if needed, then sauté minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix with Caesar dressing in a large bowl.
- Toast bread slices until golden brown on both sides.
- Assemble sandwiches by placing a slice of toasted bread down, topping it with the garlic butter chicken mixture and romaine lettuce, then adding another slice of bread on top. Drizzle with extra Caesar dressing if desired.
