How to Make

  • Step 1: To make dressing: whisk together all ingredients in a bowl. Chill until ready to use. Drizzle desired amount over salad and top with fresh cracked pepper.

  • Step 2: Grill chicken breasts over medium high heat until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece reads 170F (77F) – about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.

  • Step 3: Brush the 4 romaine heart halves with olive oil. Using a hot grill, grill hearts, turning once, just until grill marks appear (approx. 1 minute each side). Take care not to overcook, lettuce should still maintain a crisp texture. Remove from heat, place each half on 4 plates.

  • Step 4: Slice all 4 grilled chicken breasts into thin slices.

  • Step 5: Arrange chicken slices, prosciutto slices, shaved parmesan cheese, croutons, and capers on top of lettuce (2 prosciutto for each plate).

  • Step 6: Drizzle desired amount over salad and top with fresh cracked pepper.
