Parmesan Chicken With Caesar-Roasted Romaine image

This recipe is from bonappetit.com, and it's a great healthy twist on my favorite salad- Chicken Caesar. It also looks great on the plate. I add capers to this, but it's not part of the original recipe.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 chicken breast halves
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped, divided
2 heads romaine lettuce, halved lengthwise
4 -8 anchovy fillets, drained & chopped
2 tablespoons capers, drained (optional)
1 lemon, cut into 8 wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°.
  • Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Season chicken with salt and pepper; place on prepared sheet. Combine cheese, panko, 2 tablespoons oil, parsley, and half of the garlic in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Pat panko mixture onto breasts. Roast chicken until crumbs begin to turn golden, about 15 minutes.
