Instructions

Prepare the chicken fillet. For two servings, cut the fillet lengthwise into two parts. Wash, and dry the pieces with a paper towel.
The fillet can simply be boiled or baked with spices. In our version, we will marinate the meat. Prepare the products for the marinade.
In a deep bowl, mix everything for the marinade and place the prepared breast in it. Leave to marinate for about ten to fifteen minutes.
In a small amount of oil, fry the portions of meat.
Remove the crust from the slices of bread. Try to cut the bread into uniform squares.
Heat the vegetable oil, and send the pieces of bread into the frying pan. When the croutons are slightly browned, season with salt to taste and add spices.
In a saucepan with boiling water, add salt. Place one chicken and the quail eggs. Carefully monitor that the chicken egg is removed from the saucepan exactly after one minute; it should not boil, it needs to be kept in boiling water for no more than a minute. After a minute, immediately place the chicken egg into very cold water to stop the cooking process. Boil the quail eggs until done.
Prepare the sauce. Crack the chicken egg into the blender cup. Add all the ingredients according to the recipe. Whip until homogeneous. The sauce for the "Caesar" salad should have a similar structure to mayonnaise.
Cut the meat into strips. Cut the quail eggs and cherry tomatoes in half. If the products are too large, they can be cut into four pieces.
Take a large bowl. Tear the salad leaves randomly, place the prepared fillet on top, along with the tomatoes and eggs. Lightly drizzle with sauce, and sprinkle with cheese.
Repeat all over again: salad leaves, eggs, meat, and tomatoes. Add half of the croutons and mix everything.
The Classic Caesar Salad with Chicken is ready. Place the salad on flat serving plates. Add the remaining cheese and croutons. Additionally, the dish can be decorated with pieces of cherry tomatoes and wedges of quail eggs. The salad will look contrastive if sprinkled with sesame seeds.This is one of the variations for preparing the famous appetizer and sauce. The sauce can also be made based on yogurt or sour cream with herbs and anchovies (sprat), which will also be very tasty. Don't be afraid to experiment, and your dishes will always be vibrant, delicious, and unique.
