Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe

I love a good Caesar salad! It’s my favorite of all salads (hail Caesar…right??). Today were talking about taking just that to the next level, with this Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe with Grilled Chicken . It is so good, you may never go back to the traditional! I am already craving more!

You know how restaurants chill the salad plates to keep salads cold? Scratch that! Warm salads are the way to go! They are decadent, and somehow feel more substantial.

I first started grilling Romaine for salads years ago, yet sometimes I forget about that. You know how it is, you are all into something and suddenly, you are into something else and you forget about it. Then wham!! You have it again and are alll over it. I wish I could forget the Downton Abby Series or The Lord of the Rings Trilogy…Just so I could watch each again for the first time, lol!

Today I am partnering with Whole Foods and their Fill The Grill sale. Just in time for the big holiday weekend…From 6/20/16 to 7/5/16 Whole Foods is giving shoppers $10 off any $40 meat department purchase!!  Download the Whole Foods Market app and redeem this offer under Digital Coupons.

As a big fan of Whole Foods Market I personally think this is a great deal! On my last trip, I stocked up on ground pork, ground lamb, chicken and a couple of steaks.  I also grabbed a new to me Turkey Jerky called Perky Jerky “Hot & Bothered” I wish now I grabbed more than 2 bags, my husband, son and I are crazy for it! two of my other favorite finds were t a ready made Tzatziki sauce by The Farm at Red Hill (that is delicious…no time for seeding a cucumber??  Then this is for you!! Stay tuned for a recipe featuring it.) As well as a Buffalo Hummus from Eat Be Stay Cool which was so flavorful and smooth. I ALWAYS look for Buffalo Hummus yet never find it, so I usually make my own. I was really excited to find this! I love that I always find delicious new-to-me brands at Whole Foods!

I’m also a big fan of Whole Foods 365 line, this Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe with Grilled Chicken featured 365 Croutons and Romaine lettuce.

I am a gal who grills all year long so I have plenty of grilling recipes on my site. Here are a few that you need to have on your grill this summer which should definitely help “Fill the Grill”!!

Here are some not-to-be-missed grilling recipes for the Summer of 2016

Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe

Prep Time5 mins

Cook Time5 mins

Total Time10 mins

Course: Salad

Servings: 4

Author: Colleen Kennedy

Ingredients

• 2 boneless breasts of chicken
• 2 stalks of Romaine lettuce
• Salt & pepper
• 2 hard-boiled eggs peeled and halved
• 1/2 cup halved grape tomatoes
• Croutons
• Shredded or shaved Parmesan cheese
• Caesar salad dressing

Instructions

• Lightly oil and season your chicken breasts.
• Grill until done.
• Slice the Romaine lettuce stalks in half length-wise, leaving the core on (to hold it together).
• Place them on the grill, on med-high for just a couple of minutes per side. You want them to begin to char (or char a bit if you enjoy that like I do).
• Place the lettuce on a plate or large cutting board, season it with salt & pepper, add sliced chicken, tomatoes, egg, croutons, cheese.
• Drizzle with Caesar salad dressing and serve. Yum!!!

Notes

You can also lightly oil your lettuce and season it before you grill it. it will char faster, so be careful.

This serves 2 as a main course and 4 as a starter.
