Notes
Here are a few tips:
- Cut the chicken breast in half lengthwise. It is easier and quicker to cook
- You can swap the chicken breast for turkey breast, it's delicious!
- You can sprinkle parmesan shavings on top of the chicken
- You can add some slices of black olives
- If you wanted to go for the traditional caesar salad sauce, you would need one 0% fat yoghurt, 1tsp of honey, 1tps of mustard, salt and pepper to taste. Mix until combined. As it is more liquid than the sauce used in this recipe, you could keep the sauce separate and add it just before eating to avoid soften the bread
- If you prepare too much food, you can keep it in the fridge for an additional 24 hours but no more because of the mayonnaise
