Steps:
- Start by cooking the pasta according to the package directions. Cook in salted water until just "al dente". Cook for 1 minute less than what it says on the package.
- You can use rotisserie chicken, but if you have raw chicken breast and want to cook it. Slice a chicken breast into thin cutlets, season with salt, pepper, and garlic granules and pan fry it until it's cooked through. Slice it into strips or dice it.
- To assemble the salad, in a large mixing bowl combine the pasta, lettuce, croutons, cooked chicken, cherry tomatoes, avocado, parmesan, and drizzle with Caesar dressing. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Toss the salad to combine and serve.

Steps:
- Cook pasta in salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Rinse in cold water and set aside to drain.
- Rinse, chop and spin the romaine lettuce dry using a salad spinner. If you don't have a salad spinner, pat dry with a clean towel. The dressing will coat the salad much better if the lettuce isn't wet. Transfer lettuce to a large mixing bowl. Toss in the pasta, diced avocado, and halved tomatoes.
- Add the Caesar Dressing to really boost the flavor of this salad. Toss to evenly coat the lettuce. Add the dressing to taste. Sprinkle with parmesan and croutons.

CAESAR PASTA SALAD
This is a mashup of two summertime favorites: caesar salad and pasta salad. I'm not a big fan of pasta salad, for the most part, because the dressings don't deliver big enough flavor. What's good about this salad is that the dressing brings deep umami through the anchovy and soy sauce that's blended with the vinegar and olive oil. I also decided to wake up the whole dish with some charred romaine. It makes the dish memorable for your guests.

Steps:
- For the croutons: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss the bread cubes with the oil, salt and pepper. Spread the cubes in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake until golden, turning once about halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes total. Toss with the Parmesan while still hot and set aside to let cool.
- For the caesar dressing: In a blender, combine the garlic, capers, anchovies, mustard, Parmesan, vinegar and Worcestershire and blend until smooth. Add the olive oil and blend to emulsify the dressing. Season with salt as needed.
- For the salad: Heat a grill over medium-high heat. Drizzle the romaine heart halves with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred and softened, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, toss the pasta with 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper to taste. Add the romaine and dressing to taste and toss to coat.
- In a large bowl, toss the Bibb lettuce with the lemon juice, remaining tablespoon oil, salt and pepper to taste and the basil. Add the croutons and gently combine. Add the pasta and romaine salad and Parmesan to the Bibb salad and gently toss together. Garnish with more cheese and serve.
