INGREDIENTS

  • Protein

    • 8 ounces chicken cutlets

  • Vegetables

    • 4 cups Romaine lettuce

  • Carbohydrates

    • 2 1/2 cups Tater Tots

  • Dairy

    • 2 ounces Parmesan cheese

  • Condiments

    • 1 cup Caesar dressing
    • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
    • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
    • 1 teaspoon garlic

  • Spices and Seasonings

    • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

  • Vinegar

    • 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare baking sheets and spray a baking pan with cooking spray; place frozen chicken filets on the pan.

2

Bake chicken filets on the lower-center shelf in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, turning them halfway through. Cool and cut into bite-sized pieces.

3

Meanwhile, line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread out Tater Tots in an even layer.

4

Bake Tater Tots on the upper-center shelf for 8-10 minutes until soft and slightly baked. Smash them with a cup and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and bake until melted.

5

Mix Caesar dressing, lemon juice, anchovy paste, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and salt together in a bowl until smooth.

6

Toss together lettuce, chicken, remaining Parmesan cheese, and black pepper. Add half the dressing and mix well. Toss Tater Tots and remaining dressing into the salad.

7

Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with white balsamic vinegar, and garnish with more Parmesan cheese.
