Ingredients
- 2 chicken breast about 1/4 lb each, small
- 1 Oz Parmesan Cheese sliced, fresh
- 2 whole wheat hamburger buns (or gluten free!)
- 2-4 Tbsp caesar dressing depending on how saucy you like it. (GF if needed, reduced-fat
- leaves romaine lettuce
- red onion sliced (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium high heat.
- Once the grill is hot, place the chicken breast on it and cook until no longer pink inside, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once you flip it, place 1/2 an oz of cheese on each breast in the final few minutes of cooking, so that it gets nice and melty.
- During the last few minutes of cooking, also place the buns cut-side down so they get a little toasty and crunchy.
- Spread 1/2 - 1 Tbsp of dressing on each side of the hamburger buns and top with lettuce leaves and red onion (if using.)
- Place the chicken on top and DEVOUR.
