Ingredients
4 small rolls (sub, baguette, sourdough, etc.)
80 g unsalted butter (room temp)
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup grated parmesan
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 tsp minced garlic
2 anchovy fillets (optional)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (verify alcohol-free)
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cos (romaine) lettuce, shredded
4 cooked chicken schnitzels
1/2 cup grated parmesan (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat oven grill (broiler) to high heat
In a bowl, mix butter with 1/2 tsp garlic, parsley, sea salt, and 1/2 cup parmesan to make garlic spread
Divide spread among rolls, place on a baking tray, and toast under the grill until golden
In a separate bowl, blend mayonnaise, 1/2 tsp garlic, anchovy fillets (if using), lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, remaining salt, and pepper to create dressing
On each roll, layer shredded romaine, a cooked chicken schnitzel, and 2 tbsp dressing
Sprinkle with parmesan and serve immediately
Notes
Substitute entirety of anchovy fillets with capers or kalamata olives for non-porcine, alcohol-free flavor
Use pre-cooked chicken schnitzels to maximize time efficiency
Alternatively, toast rolls on a stovetop with a skillet for a softer crust
Add a slice of tomato or avocado for extra freshness
