1. Bread and Cook the Chicken
Start by dipping the chicken breast in beaten eggs, then coat it evenly in Italian seasoned breadcrumbs. Cook the breaded chicken in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice the chicken into strips or cubes.
2. Prepare the Salad Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella cheese. Toss gently to combine.
3. Assemble the Salad
Arrange the cooked chicken strips or cubes on top of the salad base. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and salad mixture.
4. Drizzle with Marinara Sauce and Balsamic Glaze
Drizzle marinara sauce over the chicken and salad, followed by a generous drizzle of balsamic glaze for added sweetness and depth of flavor.
5. Garnish and Serve
Garnish the Chicken Parmesan Salad with freshly chopped basil leaves for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures.
