Directions

Prep 35 minCook 15 min
  1. 1

    Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size pieces. In a bowl, combine the chicken with 2 tablespoons olive oil, half the lemon juice, and half of the Caesar dressing; toss to coat, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Toss the cubed baguette with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Thread marinated chicken onto 6 skewers. Thread the bread cubes and cherry tomatoes onto the remaining skewers.

  5. 5

    Lightly brush the grill pan with olive oil. Season the chicken skewers with salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    Grill the chicken skewers, turning occasionally, until nicely charred and cooked through, about 8–10 minutes.

  7. 7

    Grill the bread and tomato skewers until the bread is crisp and the tomatoes are lightly charred, about 4–5 minutes.

  8. 8

    Arrange romaine on a platter. Top with grilled chicken, croutons, and tomatoes. Drizzle with the remaining Caesar dressing, sprinkle with Parmesan, and finish with the remaining lemon juice to taste.
