I've made this recipe twice so far and it is easily my favorite recipe for summer entertaining. Talk about simple. It is by no means low fat, but the flavors are divine.

This salad was a hit with my guests and my picky husband. I freshly grated the parmesan. Instead of the creme fraiche, I used a teaspoon of mayo. I've made it several times the past 3 weeks.

This is a GREAT dish! My family loved the croutons at the bottom and the chicken was moist and delicious. If your family won't like caesar dressing, this would probably be good with another dressing like oil and vinegar. We loved the chicken and croutons so much that we are having that without the salad tomorrow for dinner.

This Chicken Caeser recipe is sooo fabulous! I can't say enough about it. The flavors are so rustic and real. I'll never be able to eat a basic chicken breast caesar again!

The only thing I would say, is that on the show Jamie cooked in a brick oven. Cooking in my home oven required longer cooking times and while I let the chicken cool slightly I had to turn the bread over to fully crisp it. I left if a little soft in the middle which was soooo delicious!

I would make this again, and again. And I think I could modify this for a fresh twist on Thanksgiving.

We streamlined this recipe by substituting a cooked, rotissiere chicken. First we microwaved 2-3 slices of bacon/serving to precook the bacon. Then we chunked up the chicken, ripped up the ciabiatta & piled it up on a roasting pan & layered the partially cooked bacon on top. Since I can't stand to look at anchovies, we substituted a good squeeze of anchovie paste & used ricotta cheese in lieu of the creme fraiche. We roasted the chicken/bacon/ciabiatta for 20 minutse @ 350 degrees, then turned it up to 450 degrees to crisp up the bacon for another 5-7 minutes. When the chicken/bacon/ciabiatta was done, we chunked up the bacon & ciabiatta with a knife, tossed it all with the chicken & dressing & had a marvelous feast.

I have had many caesar salads in many restaurant but this beats them all. Be sure & use ciabiatta bread...the texture it adds is invaluable. By taking these shortcuts, this was also a very quick meal, suitable for weekdays!

My wife and I tuned in to this episode of Jamie At Home and he was making this salad. We bought the ingredients and made it for two other couples we had over for dinner. Everyone was raving about how light the dish is yet heavy enough to eat for dinner. This salad has big, bold, flavors and everyone was impressed. We'll be making more of Jamie Oliver's dishes weekly!

I made just the dressing. I have a hard time finding bottled Caesar dressing that I like. This is easy, great taste and does not have that heavy dressing taste. I really like it.
