Caesar salad with chicken and anchovies
4 servings
30 minutes
Caesar salad with chicken and anchovies is an exquisite combination of crispy lettuce leaves, tender chicken meat, and a tangy dressing. Although its name refers to Rome, it actually originated in North America, created by Italian chef Caesar Cardini. Anchovies add a salty depth of flavor that complements the creamy dressing made from sour cream and Parmesan. Croutons fried in olive oil give the dish a rich texture. This salad is perfect as a light yet filling dinner and pairs wonderfully with white wine. The 'Caesar' has become a classic of world gastronomy, offering an elegant balance of freshness and flavor richness.
