Delicious Chicken Caesar Sliders

Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
- 12 slider buns
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Prep the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the chicken breasts into slider-sized pieces.
- Make the Coating: In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the Chicken: Dip each piece of chicken into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes to ensure crispiness.
- Assemble the Sliders: On each slider bun, spread a layer of Caesar dressing, add a piece of the crispy chicken, and top with chopped romaine lettuce.
