Chicken -Caesar salad is generally something that I don’t believe that it has to be messed up. It is a classic that is always satisfied, be it for lunch or as an easy dinner. However, I can be persuaded to optimize a classic when pasta is involved. If you add pasta to the traditional chicken -caesar equation, it will not only be able to do it in something that can seamlessly play the main course or the Potluck page, which is my favorite recipe in summer.
All usual suspects are here: crispy Roman salad, Knobles -Caesar -Dressing, delicate chicken, salty parmesan cheese. Instead of croutons, however, I choose golden, golden bread crumbs, which are better to mix with the pasta and give every fork crunch.

Lean on speed ingredients on ingredients bought in the shop
This recipe calls for pre-cooked chicken (look at it, rotisserie or remnants from the grill) and your favorite caesar dressing in bottles (California olive ranch is mine) to keep the contractions on a minimum. That means you can quickly raise it for a spontaneous cookout or dinner during the week.
That means you can of course cook the chicken from scratch or make your own dressing if you prefer it.
Make this pasta salad your own
There are many ways to reef on this pasta salad. Do you prefer steak in your Caesar instead of chicken? It would be great here. Or do you want to make it vegetarian? Throw a few doses of drained and rinsed chickpeas. Can you imagine Caesar without croutons? The garlic bread crumbs fall and stir in one or two cups with croutons bought or homemade in the shop.
How to make chicken -caesar -pasta salad in advance
One thing that must be observed is that this pasta salad is best enjoyed shortly after complete assembly, since the salad and bread crumbs become soft according to the thrown dressing.
To make it at the front, combine the boiled pasta, chicken and salad in a bowl and keep it covered in the fridge until a day. Store the garlic bread crumbs in a separate container at room temperature. Put on the pasta salad and add the bread loops and shaved parmesan just before serving.
