Chicken Caesar Salad Recipe - Cajun Style

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into strips
  • 1 head of romaine lettuce washed, dried, and cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1/4 pound bacon cooked until crisp
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning mix purchased or your own
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Caesar salad dressing light or regular
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Make sure the crumbled bacon gets well drained - you can use several thicknesses of paper towels or strain the crumbled bacon in a fine mesh strainer set over a bowl.
  2. Mix the Cajun seasoning with the strips of chicken breast and refrigerate for about half an hour.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the strips of chicken breast until they are cooked through and slightly crispy. Remove the chicken from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the chopped romaine with the Caesar salad dressing, the crumbled bacon and the Parmesan cheese. Mound the salad on to chilled plates.
  5. Divide the cooked chicken and place some on top of each salad and serve.
