CAESAR SALAD CROUTONS

Steps:

• Combine garlic and oil in a small saucepan. Simmer until cloves are a light gold color, about 15 minutes. Pour oil through a fine sieve, squeeze all juice from cloves, and then discard the solids. Set garlic oil aside.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly oil a baking sheet.
• Arrange bread cubes in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake, turning bread cubes periodically, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
• In a large, non-stick skillet, melt 1/3 cup ghee with 1/3 cup garlic oil over medium heat. Cook toasted bread cubes in batches until light to medium golden brown, turning frequently. Add more ghee and garlic oil as needed. Turn out into basket lined with paper towels, and drain for about 20 minutes.

FRIED CHICKEN CROUTON CAESAR SALAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the Caesar dressing: In a blender or food processor, combine the anchovies, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, McCormick® Garlic Powder, lemon juice, and canola oil. Blend until combined with a consistency similar to mayonnaise. Add the Parmesan, salt, and pepper to taste, and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the fried chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, McCormick® Garlic Powder, and McCormick® Paprika. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk.
• Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Coat the chicken in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, then again in the flour mixture.
• Heat ½ inch of canola oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, add the chicken thighs to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crisp, 6-8 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
• Make the salad: In a large bowl, gently toss together the Little Gem lettuce, tomatoes, and Caesar dressing. Garnish with fried chicken croutons and more Parmesan.
• Enjoy!

FRIED SHALLOT CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare the shallot aioli: Combine shallots, egg, lemon juice, mustard, fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce and garlic in the bottom of a jar just wide enough to fit the head of an immersion blender (see Tip). Add the neutral oil, pouring it in slowly so that it forms a distinct layer on top of the other ingredients. Place the head of an immersion blender all the way at the bottom of the jar. Turn on the blender and slowly pull it up through the jar so that the oil is slowly incorporated and forms a creamy emulsion.
• Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil, then whisk in water as needed until the dressing forms a light, creamy consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Prepare the salad: If using homemade shallots, skip to Step 4. If using store-bought shallots, toast the shallots in a large skillet over medium heat until deep caramel brown and aromatic, about 3 minutes. (Alternatively, you can toast the shallots on a sheet tray in an oven or toaster oven at 375 degrees until deep caramel brown, about 6 minutes.) Season generously with salt and transfer to a bowl.
• In a large bowl, toss the lettuce with a few tablespoons of the dressing, half of the fried shallots and the Parmesan until lightly coated. Taste some of it, then add more dressing and season to taste with salt and pepper as desired. Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle with remaining fried shallots, grate some more Parmesan on top, garnish with anchovies (if using) and serve. Leftover dressing can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
