For the chicken:

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs gluten-free

For the roasted potatoes:

  • 2 cups red potatoes quartered
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

For the salad:

  • 1 head romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese or dairy free sub
  • 2 tbsp Homemade Caesar dressing
  • 1 Chicken Cutlet recipe above
  • 1 cup Roasted potatoes

For the Caesar dressing:

  • 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 lemon squeezed
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 anchovies
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Prep the chicken: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). In a shallow bowl, add the egg whites, salt, and pepper. Dip each chicken piece in the egg wash, then coat evenly with breadcrumbs. Place the breaded chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Roast the potatoes: Toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil spray, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
  • Make the Caesar dressing: In a blender or food processor, combine all dressing ingredients. Blend until smooth and creamy, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, toss together the romaine lettuce, roasted potatoes, crispy chicken, and parmesan cheese. Drizzle with the homemade Caesar dressing and toss to coat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
