Step by step

Method

4 steps

  1. 1

    Blend the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon, Worcestershire, anchovy paste, garlic, salt, pepper, honey, and oils until smooth. Stir in ½ cup grated Parmesan and chill the dressing for at least 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally and gently pound them to about ½ inch thick. Season with salt and pepper, coat with ½ cup dressing, and chill for 30 minutes to 2 hours.

  3. 3

    Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high, about 450°F. Cook the chicken 4–5 minutes on the first side and 3–4 minutes on the second, until grill marks show and the center reaches 165°F. Rest 5–10 minutes, then slice.

  4. 4

    Put the chopped romaine in a large bowl and toss with ½ cup dressing, the Parmesan, and half the croutons. Add the chicken, remaining croutons, shaved Parmesan, and black pepper, with extra dressing at the table.
