Ingredients

  • 4 skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • the zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
  • a 250-255g bag Caesar salad
  • 1 large, ripe avocado
  • a small red onion

Method: How to make garlic chicken caesar

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Take 4 skinless chicken breasts and place 1 in a food bag. Using a rolling pin, lightly bash out the thickest part of the chicken until it's of an even thickness. Place in a non-metallic bowl. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Pour over 3 tablespoons olive oil, the zest and juice of 1 lemon, 3 garlic cloves, chopped, and 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves. Season well, mix and marinate for a couple of minutes.

2. Grill the chicken for 12 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and cooked through. Divide the leaves from a 250-255g bag Caesar salad between 4 shallow bowls, setting aside the croutons, Parmesan and dressing sachet. Peel, stone and chop 1 large, ripe avocado and scatter over the top, with 1 small red onion, thinly sliced. Slice the chicken, pile on top, then scatter over the croutons and Parmesan. Drizzle over the dressing to serve.

  1. Hi Matt, No you're not being silly. The dressing usually comes in the bag of salad.

  2. This may sound silly, but where is the dressing from? ...Surely you can't use the marinate to dress the salad since its been in contact with raw chicken?
