Instructions

In a bowl, mix shredded chicken with Caesar dressing, mayonnaise (if using), black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and toast the sandwich buns until golden and crisp on the inside.
Layer shredded lettuce on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Spoon the Caesar chicken mixture over the lettuce and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Optionally, add sliced tomatoes or red onion rings for extra flavor and texture.
Top with the remaining bun halves and serve the sandwiches warm.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for quicker prep.

Try grilled chicken slices for a meatier texture.

Add crispy bacon strips for extra crunch and flavor.

Experiment with whole wheat or brioche buns.

Mix in hot sauce or Dijon mustard with the dressing for a spicy kick.
