Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C and tear the bread into small chunks in a bowl.

  2. Between 2 pieces of parchment paper (or in a plastic food bag), use a rolling pin to bash the chicken to 2cm even thickness then add to the bowl with the bread.

  3. Mix the rosemary, paprika and a twist of salt and pepper with the chicken and bread chunks. Drizzle with olive oil then lay out on a baking tray. Bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked and the bread chunks are crispy.

  4. Meanwhile...finely chop the garlic and mix with the parmesan cheese, yoghurt and lemon juice.

  5. Separate the leaves from the lettuce, wash, dry and mix with the yoghurt dressing.

  6. Once cooked, slice the chicken and mix into the salad leaves along with the homemade croutons.
