Servings: 2people
Ingredients
75gPancetta
2inchicken breastscut in half lengthways
1tbsp. olive oil
1/2lemonjuiced
Salt
Pepper
1tbsp.White wine vinegar
1Little gem lettucewashed and roughly chopped
1Tomatoesquartered and then halved
1/2red onionfinely sliced
50gCroutons
30gParmesangrated
100mlCaesar Dressing
Instructions
Mix the chicken breasts with the oil and lemon juice and set to the side for 10 minutes. Heat a frying pan over a medium to high heat then cook the pancetta without any oil until crispy and a golden brown, remove onto a plate with a little kitchen paper to absorb any excess oil that comes from the pancetta.
In the same pan lower the chicken and fry for 3 minutes on either side until a nice golden colour and seasoning each time. At this point add the white wine vinegar and allow the liquid to almost disappear and remove the chicken to a plate to rest for a few minutes.
While the chicken rests, in a bowl mix the lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pancetta and croutons with half the Parmesan and Caesar dressing.
Place the salad onto a plate and lay the chicken on top and cover with the remaining dressing and then more Parmesan.
Notes
If you want to add all of the dressing and parmesan to the salad at stage 3 then this is just as good.
