Delicious Chicken Caesar Salad Croissant Melts

These croissant melts feature shredded chicken mixed with Caesar dressing, topped with romaine lettuce and Parmesan cheese, all baked until golden and bubbly. The recipe takes about 30 minutes and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

4 large croissants, sliced in half
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1/2 cup Caesar dressing
1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing)
Optional: additional Caesar dressing for drizzling

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Caesar dressing, black pepper, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated.
Assemble the Croissants: Place the bottom halves of the croissants on a baking sheet. Spoon the chicken mixture evenly onto each croissant half. Top with chopped romaine and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
Close the Croissants: Place the top halves of the croissants over the filling. Brush the tops with olive oil to help them brown.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Drizzle with additional Caesar dressing if desired, then serve warm.
