How to Make Parmesan Chicken With Caesar Roasted Romaine

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  2. Season 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Place chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, and 1 clove minced garlic.
  5. Season the panko mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Pat the panko mixture evenly onto both sides of the chicken breasts.
  7. Roast chicken for 15 minutes, or until the crumbs begin to turn golden brown.
  8. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Arrange 1 head of romaine lettuce, cut into quarters, around the chicken breasts.
  9. Drizzle romaine with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with 1 clove minced garlic.
  10. Season romaine with salt and pepper.
  11. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F) and the lettuce is softened and slightly browned at the edges.
  12. Divide the chicken and roasted romaine among plates.
  13. Top with 1 tablespoon of capers (optional) and 1-2 anchovy fillets per serving.
  14. Garnish with lemon wedges for squeezing over. Enjoy!
