Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 4-6 thin cutlets. Whisk egg with salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a shallow bowl.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F. Fry chicken cutlets for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  3. In a saucepan, melt butter over low heat and combine with minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. Stir until fragrant and combined, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 450°F. Split hoagie rolls and spread the garlic butter mixture on each side. Toast in the oven for 3-4 minutes until golden.
  5. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, anchovy paste, and garlic until smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. Toss chopped romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing. On the toasted hoagie rolls, layer crispy chicken cutlets and dressed romaine, adding a sprinkle of Parmesan before closing.
  7. Slice sandwiches in half for easy handling and serve warm. Pair with a side salad or chips to complete the meal!
