Grilled-Chicken Caesar Salad
- 1 1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- 2 (10-oz) packages hearts of romaine
- 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 1 1/2 cups plain or flavored croutons
- a well-seasoned large (2-burner) ridged grill pan
- Heat lightly oiled grill pan over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Meanwhile, pat chicken dry and coat with 1 tablespoon oil, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill chicken, turning over once, until just cooked through, 14 to 16 minutes total.
- While chicken grills, blend garlic, lemon juice, mustard, anchovy paste, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a blender until combined. With motor running, add remaining 7 tablespoons oil in a slow stream, blending until emulsified.
- Transfer chicken to a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Toss chicken with 2 tablespoons dressing in a large bowl. Add romaine, cheese, remaining dressing, and croutons and toss.
