Ingredients in Golden Crunch Caesar Sando Supreme

Chicken Breast Cutlets

Thinly sliced for quick cooking and maximum crispiness. Juicy on the inside, golden on the outside.

Panko Breadcrumbs

These give that ultra-light, shatteringly crisp crunch that regular breadcrumbs just can’t match.

Parmesan Cheese

Adds a salty, nutty edge to the breading and the dressing. Real Parmesan makes a big difference here.

Romaine Lettuce

Fresh, crisp, and sturdy enough to hold its own without wilting under the warm chicken.

Caesar Dressing

Rich, garlicky, and creamy with that classic anchovy umami—use your fave store-bought or homemade.

Brioche or Sandwich Buns

Soft, slightly sweet buns that toast beautifully. Adds a luxurious bite to every mouthful.

Olive Oil or Butter

For toasting the buns and pan-frying the chicken to golden perfection.

Garlic Powder & Black Pepper

Simple spices that elevate the chicken coating with just the right depth and zing.

Instructions

Prep the Chicken

Pound the chicken cutlets to even thickness. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Coat in Crispy Magic

Dredge the chicken in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and coat with a mix of panko and Parmesan. Press gently to make sure it sticks.

Cook It Golden

Heat a skillet with oil or butter over medium heat. Cook each piece of chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until crispy, golden brown, and cooked through. Set aside on a rack or paper towels.

Toast the Buns

In the same skillet, add a bit more butter and toast the buns cut side down until golden and crisp.

Assemble with Style

Spread Caesar dressing generously on both sides of the bun. Layer romaine, crispy chicken, more dressing (yes, please), and extra shaved Parmesan if you like.

Seal the Deal

Close the sandwich, press gently, and serve while warm with extra Caesar on the side for dipping.

How to Serve Golden Crunch Caesar Sando Supreme

Fresh Salads: Try a tangy arugula salad or classic Caesar for a double hit of that garlicky goodness.
Fries or Chips: Serve with baked fries, sweet potato wedges, or kettle chips for crunch overload.
Pickles or Slaw: A sharp pickle or crunchy slaw cuts through the richness beautifully.
Standalone Showstopper: Honestly, it’s hearty enough to go solo. Add a lemon wedge on the side and you’re golden.

Additional Tips

Prep Ahead: Bread the chicken and store it covered in the fridge for up to 12 hours before cooking.
Spice It Up: Mix chili flakes or cayenne into the panko for extra heat.
Make It Lighter: Use grilled chicken instead of fried and serve on a lettuce wrap or whole wheat bun.
Storage Tips: Store leftovers separately to maintain crispiness. Chicken can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
Double the Batch: These freeze great once cooked—perfect for meal-prep sandwiches.
