Grilled Caesar salad with Suddenly Salad® Caesar - perfect for tailgating!
Ingredients:
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Suddenly Salad® Caesar pasta salad mix
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 lb uncooked boneless chicken tenders (not breaded)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 heads baby Romaine lettuce, cut in half lengthwise
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • Croutons, as desired
  • Shaved Parmesan cheese, as desired
Instructions:
  • Place the pasta from the Suddenly Salad box into a 3-quart saucepan filled 2/3 full with boiling water. Boil gently, uncovered, for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain the pasta, rinse with cold water, and drain well.
  • Combine the Suddenly Salad seasoning & crouton blend, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add in the cooked pasta and mix well. Cover and refrigerate until serving. In a separate small bowl, coat the chicken tenders with mustard and set aside.
  • Preheat gas or charcoal grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken tenders for about 8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cooked through. Drizzle lettuce with olive oil and grill cut side down for 1 to 2 minutes until lightly marked.
  • When ready to serve, spread the pasta mixture on large serving platters. Add chicken tenders on top, then garnish the edges with lettuce and sprinkle with cheese.
