My boyfriend’s mom is an amazing cook. Especially – salad Olivier and herring under a fur coat. Therefore, for 21 years of his life, he and his guests ate these particular salads on all holidays. At 22, with me available, he rebelled and demanded a dilution of the classic menu. Now I have to cook this Caesar in huge portions so that it can be used as a main course – this is how it is popular. We will tell you an amazing recipe of Caesar Salad With Arugula.
One of the most important tips for the making of it is that you should use only fresh arugula or rucola leaves. The fresh green vegetable enhances its taste. It is full of healthy elements that provide great benefits to your body. No doubt, all green veggies are healthier. Thus, you should use arugula leaves in it.
You can make it for your children also. We will use fried chicken cubes that make it tastier. Therefore, everyone will eat it even if they will not like vegetables. You can grill chicken fillets or bake them. It depends on your desire of eating. You can use homemade sauce but also use ready-made sauce. But if you make it in your home, then it is necessary to use good-quality anchovies.
If you are a veggie-lover, then you can add romaine lettuce to it. You can add your favorite vegetables. There are many ways of making Caesar salad with the use of rucola. The addition of lemon juice is also a great option. You can add apples to it. This healthier dish is the best for everyday eating. It takes very short time.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the table: cut lettuce and arugula into strips, tomatoes into halves.
- Remove the crust from the bread and cut into cubes.
- Preheat the pan and pour in a little oil (I always take olive oil – then the croutons will not be oily).
- Place the bread cubes in a skillet and fry for about 5 minutes over medium heat. The cubes should be completely dry.
- Cut the fillets into cubes and sprinkle with seasoning (Kotanyi is good for chicken).
- Fry the chicken (in the same olive oil).
- Immediately after cooking the chicken, you need to serve the salad (while it is hot): mix the salads, tomatoes and chicken, season with the sauce and put on a plate.
- Top with parmesan and croutons.
RECIPE TIP
If the sauce is Calve, you need more of it (about a third or half of a regular pack). Heinz – you need less (it is transparent and it is important not to overdo it). To make it look beautiful, it is better to stir with clean hands – then the sauce will be better absorbed and the tomatoes will remain intact.
