Instructions

In a bowl, prepare the Caesar dressing by mixing mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic, Parmesan, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.

Take 4-5 tablespoons of this dressing and mix it with the chopped romaine lettuce in a medium bowl; cover and refrigerate both the salad and remaining dressing.

Pound the chicken cutlets to an even thickness and sprinkle both sides with salt and ground black pepper.

Set up the breading station with three shallow plates: one with flour, salt, and smoked paprika; one with whisked eggs and salt; and the last with panko, breadcrumbs, parsley, pepper, salt, oregano, garlic powder, and Parmesan.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour mixture, dip into the egg mixture, and then firmly press into the breadcrumb mixture.

Fry the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side, and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil.

Slice the baguettes into 12 cm portions and cut each one open lengthwise.

Spread a layer of reserved Caesar dressing on each baguette, place a crispy chicken cutlet on top, followed by the Caesar salad.

Sprinkle with extra grated Parmesan, close the sandwiches, and serve immediately.
