ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 4 slices sourdough, ciabatta or gluten free bread
- Spray olive oil
- Sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 Tbsp (20ml) lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp (20ml) water

- 6 slices prosciutto
- 2 baby cos lettuce, trimmed and quartered
- 2 cups (300g) sliced roast chicken

method
- Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil. Add 2 eggs straight from the fridge and boil for 6 minutes for a soft boil (or 8 minutes if you like them jammy). Remove from the heat and run under cold water until cool enough to peel.
- Preheat the grill/broiler. Spray the bread on both sides with oil and sprinkle with salt. Toast under the grill for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until crisp.
- Cut or tear the toast into bite-sized croutons.
- To make the dressing – place the Dijon, mayo, garlic, lemon juice, water, and sour cream in a bowl and stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place 4 quarters of lettuce in each bowl, top with chicken, an egg, prosciutto, croutons and parmesan shavings. Serve with the Caesar dressing.
Leah's notes
Dietary Info: Gluten Free (if using GF bread)
Tip: For something different, try delicious fresh or smoked salmon instead of chicken.
