with Lemon & Parmesan
- Eggs

We’ve taken everyone’s favorite salad and transformed it into a sheet-pan meal fit for any weeknight. You’ll top chicken cutlets with Caesar dressing and panko, then bake ‘em until crisp. Two kinds of roasted broccoli (a mix of classic and baby broccoli!) complete the meal, alongside freshly grated Parmesan and another drizzle of Caesar dressing.

Cooking Steps
• Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Zest and quarter lemon. Grate Parmesan over a small bowl (skip this step if pre-shredded). Trim and discard stem ends from baby broccoli. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces.
• Place 1 TBSP butter(2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a second small microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. • Stir in panko, half the Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper.
• In a third small bowl, combine dressing, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and pepper; stir until garlic powder is completely incorporated. • Add lemon zest, half the Parmesan, and juice from one lemon wedge (juice from two lemon wedges for 4 servings). Stir to combine.
• Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper; place on one side of a lightly oiled baking sheet. • Evenly spread a thin layer of dressing onto tops of chicken; mound with panko mixture, pressing to adhere (no need to coat the undersides).
• Toss baby broccoli on opposite side of sheet from chicken with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. • Toss broccoli on a second sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast baby broccoli and chicken on top rack and broccoli on middle rack, swapping rack positions halfway through, until baby broccoli and broccoli are browned and tender and chicken is cooked through, 18-22 minutes.
• Slice chicken crosswise. • Toss broccoli and baby broccoli together; divide chicken, broccoli, and baby broccoli between plates. • Drizzle with remaining dressing and garnish with remaining Parmesan. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Reviews from our home cooks
I didn't get broccoli with this box due to a shortage which may have affected the final product, but this chicken recipe wasn't as delicious as others I've had unfortunately. Maybe cheese can be in the breading instead of the Caesar dressing binder that's put on the chicken?
It was really good. My only thing would be that I feel like I needed just a bit more dressing for the chicken and then as like a dipping sauce on the side.
The meal was delicious BUT the 2 kinds of broccoli was confusing... and then we got green beans substituted which were slimy & no good. We steamed 1/2 the broccolini for my daughter & roasted the rest.
Very good. Should be served with rice or potatoes. The broccoli and chicken is excellent but not a full meal
The Caesar dressing was good to dip-but you should provide more to also roll the chicken in and then the bread crumbs on top of that. Would add a little more depth of flavor to chicken in addition to the flavored panko. Still super good would get it again.
I am obsessed with this meal. The sauce is sooo good. Want to eat this again and again
Best one so far. This was absolutely delicious. I'd get this again in a heartbeat!
100000/10. This may be my favorite meal so far. Super simple but INCREDIBLY delicious!
So delicious. The lemon added such freshness. Only problem is it didn't come with two types of broccoli. Only the baby broccoli and green beans.
My whole family loved this meal. It was my favorite Hello Fresh meal ever! Delicious!
