Consider in more detail the most popular recipes.
Whip sauce
Today, many manufacturers of mayonnaise and
salad dressings offer their option for Caesar. The main disadvantage of ready-made dressings is their excessive density and too bright taste of spices. If desired, the prepared sauce for Caesar with chicken can be diluted with kefir.
Based on this fermented milk drink, you can prepare the sauce yourself. Introduce mayonnaise into kefir in the ratio 1: 2. Add chopped garlic, salt and pepper to taste. If the dressing does not seem to you expressive enough, enter your favorite spices into it.
Original Caesar dressing with chicken
The European version of the salad with homemade baguette croutons and fried meat is also Caesar with chicken. A recipe for which a special sauce is needed, we will now consider.
Prepare the components in advance. You will definitely need anchovy fillets and capers, other products will probably be found in your refrigerator. To prepare the dressing you need a blender. Place ¾ cup of yogurt without additives in the appliance bowl, the same amount of mayonnaise, 100 g anchovies. Add a little grated hard cheese, capers and mustard. Grind all components and mix with a blender. Try the sauce to taste, add spices and salt if desired. Ready refueling can stand in the refrigerator in a closed container for about a week. If you mix the components in the specified amount, the sauce should be enough for 10 servings of salad.
Making Caesar Sauce with Butter or Cream
It is believed that garlic dressing is a must for
chicken salad . You can cook it on natural cream or olive oil. For creamy sauce you will need:
- 200 g of fat cream;
- 2 egg yolks;
- some hard cheese;
- 1 tsp mustard;
- 2 cloves of garlic.
Grind all solid products, mix the sauce thoroughly (you can use a food processor for this). You can add finely chopped fresh dill. The recipe for the sauce with olive oil resembles this option, but you will not need cream and cheese. Instead, take 1/2 oil and 2 large tablespoons of lemon juice. We keep the proportions of the remaining components, as in the recipe with cream, mix everything and beat. Chicken Caesar sauce made using this recipe can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. If you follow the recipe, the finished dressing is enough for at least 2 servings.
Many housewives think: how much sauce to add to the salad? It is best to serve Caesar in portions, and add about 2-3 tablespoons of sauce on a plate. However, this is a matter of personal taste. Some people like Caesar sauce with chicken so much that it takes at least half a glass for one serving.
