Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine romaine and croutons; set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, milk, lemon juice, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, the garlic, salt, and pepper; whisk until smooth and creamy.

Add dressing to lettuce and croutons; toss to coat well.

Top with anchovies and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes:
This can be turned into a chicken Caesar salad meal by arranging the salad on plates and topping with strips of grilled boneless, skinless, chicken breasts.
