Caesar Salad with Sliced Chicken
The first time I experienced a Caesar Salad was at the famous Brown Derby restaurant in LA. I was young, newly married and naive. It turned out to be the only thing on the menu my wife and I could afford.
When the waiter wheeled the cart to our table to prepare the salads, he grabbed the egg at speed with a flourish and cracked it with one hand. Nothing happened. The kitchen had sent him a hardboiled egg. He smiled through gritted teeth and hissed at the busboy to fetch him a raw egg for the dressing. The show was worth the price.
You won’t have the same problem with this version since it utilizes a wonderful eggless Caesar dressing. Enjoy!
This video will talk you through the preparation.
