Salade Apéro Menguy's aux noix de cajou, croûtons, olives et œuf mollet

Recipe

For 1 person :

- 1 Romaine lettuce heart
- 1 chicken breast
- Parmesan shavings
- Menguy’s Salt & Pepper Cashews
- Cherry tomatoes and olives
- Croutons
- Classic Caesar dressing
- For the breading: flour, 1 egg, sunflower oil, breadcrumbs
- 1 poached egg (optional)

Step 1:

Wash and coarsely chop the Romaine lettuce to maintain good volume on the plate.

Step 2:

Prepare three shallow bowls: the first with flour, the second with the beaten egg and a little oil, and the third with breadcrumbs. Slice the chicken into strips 1 to 2 cm thick. Coat them successively in the flour, egg, and then the breadcrumbs, pressing firmly for an even crust.

Step 3:

Heat a pan over medium-high heat with a mix of butter and oil. Fry the chicken strips for about 3 to 4 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 4:

While the chicken is cooking, toss the salad with the Caesar dressing. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and olives. Top with the warm chicken and Parmesan shavings.

Step 5:

Add the poached egg and croutons, then finish by adding the coarsely crushed Menguy’s Salt & Pepper Cashews for maximum texture and depth of flavor.

Salt & Pepper Cashews are a great alternative or addition to traditional croutons, bringing a toasted note and a subtle seasoning that instantly elevates the creamy sweetness of the Caesar dressing.
