6pt Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad

[Guest guest]

1/8 cup Extra Virgin olive oil

1/8 cup water

2 tablespoons lemon juice

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

2 boneless skinless chicken breast

2 tablespoons light mayonnaise

10 ounces romaine lettuce

1 ounce parmesan cheese

1 ounce romano cheese

if you can afford the points add 1 oz mozzarella

In a large bowl, whisk together water, oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and

pepper. Remove 2 tbls. oil mixture from bowl add to skillet (or brush over meat

and grill/broil) cook chicken for about 5 min or until done. Add mayonnaise to

remaining oil mixture. Add lettuce, cheese (leave a bit of cheese for garnish)

and toss to coat. Arrange salad on four serving plates. Cut chicken crosswise

into 1/2 inch slices, arrange on salads. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

This comes out to 6 points......I love it with Caesar Salad croutons, but I did

not have the points listed for those so I omitted those from this recipe. We

just love this, even my 3 1/2 year old eat this. The salad dressing keeps for

about 3 days, if you want to make it ahead of time or if you don't use all of

it.

I thought I would add this about these two cheeses, I buy the shredded cheese in

small plastic containers at Aldie's. I just stick them in my freezer and when I

need a bit of cheese I shake the container and spoon out what I need (frozen)

and by the time we eat our salads it's thawed. It's a nice way to keep cheese

on hand without it getting moldy

MMMM! Thanks a bunch Moe. This sounds wonderful - I never even thought of

grilled caesar salad and I love it in restaurants!

And thanks too for the ideas in the previous post - I'm printing out

everything from everyone's responses for my dh. ;-)

Great idea! Especially since I don't have a decent grater.

Thanks
