chicken caesar salad

Another 'oldie' makes a reappearance as the days lengthen and warm up; Jamie Oliver's 'Proper' caesar salad.

chicken caesar saladIt's another recipe I find peculiarly satisfying to make, particularly the sauce. However Jamie is only half right in his opinions: It *is* better to use chicken legs as the meat is moister, but unless you like croutons soggy and full of chicken juice, like doughy parson's noses, they are patently not the best croutons ever.

Tonight she decides it's not 'zingy' enough, and more as a lunch thing. Unfortunately for her we've got two more legs in the freezer and unless I can find something else to do with them, she's having it again. Mu-ha-ha-ha
