Chicken Caesar Sandwiches

Think chicken Caesar salad, but in sandwich form.  Add a bunch of extra goodies like avocado and some sharp white cheddar cheese and it really makes it special.  Of course it doesn't hurt that you cook the chicken in the crock pot then pull everything together in the end nice and fast.  I really like these with the homemade French bread buns I posted last week, but really they'll be good on any sort of bun.  I also like to use homemade Caesar dressing, but your favorite bottled dressing will do just as well--though I do recommend using a creamy variety if you can.

Chicken Caesar Sandwiches

Number of Servings: 4
Time to Prepare: 4 hours 30 minutes

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • water
  • 3/4 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 Tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • sandwich buns
  • mayonnaise
  • sliced avocado
  • sliced tomato
  • sliced sharp white cheddar cheese
  • romaine lettuce
Place chicken in crock pot.  Add enough water to almost cover the chicken.  Cook on low for 3 to 4 hours.

Remove chicken from crock pot and shred.  Discard liquid remaining in the crock pot.  Return chicken to the pot and stir in Caesar dressing, Parmesan, parsley, and pepper.  Cook on low for 30 minutes.  Add top bun and serve.
