Recipe Description
These easy Oven-Baked Caesar Chicken Skewers are a fun twist on a classic Caesar Salad. It’s the kind of weeknight recipe that I just love, requiring only a few minutes of prep time, a few ingredients and it can be made in less than 40 minutes total, and that’s including the 20-minute marinating time. Plus, it’s oven-baked, no searing involved, which mean less work! The fun part is wrapping these delicious, juicy and super tender chicken pieces in lettuce leaves and garnishing them with freshely grated parmesan. Crunchy goodness right there. Serve garlic bread on the side and you will have your very own version of a “Dec-onstructed Caesar Salad», a dish that seems to be on every trendy restaurants menu these days!
But this is where this recipe gets even more interesting and may very well become your new best friend: make a double batch so you have plenty of lunch solutions for the week like wrap sandwiches, salads, pasta salad with chicken pieces, really the possibilities are endless which makes me love this recipe even more!
