If you love all things Caesar salad, then these flatbreads could be your new obsession. Follow me…
Chicken Caesar Skewers
We’ll be using chicken thigh for this recipe. I love using thigh because it’s fattier and more flavoursome than breast. It’s also much more difficult to overcook.
Why cook the chicken on skewers?
It’s mainly so the chicken can be easily turned all at once. This also gives you the option to cook them outside on the grill, and since this is a Summery recipe, it’s great to have that option. Needless to say with the UK weather I often cook these indoors!
What kind of skewers should I use?
I use bamboo skewers (the metal ones get scorching hot). If you’re cooking them over flame I recommend soaking the skewers, just to help prevent them from burning. Process shots: mix diced chicken with Caesar dressing, oil and seasoning (photo 1), thread onto skewers (photo 2), add to pan (photo 3), fry (photo 4).
Chicken Caesar Flatbreads
With the chicken, I love tossing some romaine lettuce with shaved parmesan and Caesar dressing. Alongside that, I go in with some crispy bacon and croutons. Stuff it in a flatbread and you’re good to go! Process shots: add salad to flatbread (photo 1), add chicken (photo 2), add bacon (photo 3), add croutons and extra dressing (photo 4).
Can I use breast instead of thigh?
Yes, just be aware it’ll cook quicker and is more prone to drying out.
What’s the best way to cook the bacon?
I like to bake it, just so it’s out of sight/out of mind whilst you crack on with everything else. It also usually finishes cooking just before it’s needed for plating up. You can realistically cook it whichever you fancy though.
What kind of croutons should I use?
I typically use store-bought ones (salt & pepper flavoured). You can easily make your own though – I’ve added more on this is the recipe card notes below.
