Cleopatras Caesar Salad Recipes

Steps:

• If you are using chicken breasts instead of tenders, cut into long, thick strips about 4 per breast.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil in a slow steady stream. Add crushed pepper, crushed garlic, and chicken tenders. Saute chicken tenders or breast slices in garlic oil until lightly browned on all sides, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add wine to the pan and reduce heat to medium low. Let the liquid cook out and tenders cook through, about 3 to 4 minutes more, then remove pan from heat. Squeeze lemon juice over chicken and sprinkle with parsley salt and pepper. Pile tenders along side a generous portion of Caesar greens and serve.
• To make dressing, combine anchovies, garlic, and oil in a metal or heatproof glass bowl. Place bowl on grill top and cover grill. Cook oil mixture 2 or 3 minutes or until garlic is speaking by sizzling in oil. Remove dressing from heat and beat warm oil with a fork until the anchovies break up completely and dissipates in oil. Cooked anchovies melt away easily and the flavor changes from fishy to nutty. Transfer oil mixture to a large salad bowl. Add Worcestershire, lemon juice, egg, pepper, and cheese while beating with fork. Toss greens to coat with dressing.

Steps:

• Turn the oven to 450 degrees.
• Spray the bread on both sides with nonstick spray; then rub with the cut side of several garlic cloves, reserving 1 clove for the dressing. Toast the bread for about 10 minutes, on the bottom shelf of the oven, until brown, turning once.
• Spoon the grated cheese into a small bowl. Stir in the buttermilk, and blend well.
• Mince 1 clove of garlic, and add to the mixture with mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire, anchovies, parsley, salt and pepper, whisk to blend.
• For each salad, mix together 1/4 of the croutons with 5 cups of romaine and 1/4 of the salad dressing, and toss.
