1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp lemon juice (optional for brightness)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup chopped romaine lettuce
4 large buttery croissants, sliced horizontally
Optional: croutons (crushed), for crunch
Optional: sliced tomatoes or bacon for extra layers
Instructions
Make the filling: In a bowl, combine cooked chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
Add lettuce: Gently fold in chopped romaine right before assembling to keep it crisp.
Assemble sandwiches: Slice each croissant in half. Layer the chicken Caesar mixture evenly onto the bottom halves.
Top & serve: Add extra toppings like crushed croutons or tomatoes if desired. Cover with the top half of the croissant and serve immediately.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
For meal prep, keep the lettuce separate and assemble just before serving.
Toast croissants slightly for extra texture.
