Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Trim, peel, and grate carrots on the largest holes of a box grater. Dice tomato into 1⁄2-inch pieces. TIP: If you added any other items to your meal (apps, sides, and/or dessert), you can get started on them now!
• Melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add panko, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a small bowl. Wipe out pan.
• Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Season all over with Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for panko over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes per side. (TIP: If chicken is browning too quickly, reduce heat to medium and cover until cooked through.) Transfer to a cutting board.
• Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a second small microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; microwave until melted, 30-60 seconds. • Stir in half the garlic powder (all for 4), salt, and pepper.
• Halve and toast baguette. • Brush as much garlic butter as you like onto cut sides of toasted baguette.
• Thinly slice chicken crosswise. • Serve chicken, mixed greens, carrots, tomato, toasted panko, Italian dressing, honey Dijon dressing, and Parmesan family style and let everyone build their own plate. Serve with garlic bread on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Reviews from our home cooks
This is a quick meal when I don't really want to invest time or energy in making decisions or cooking. I cooked the chicken in advance so everything is just ready to go on the plate.
Loved this one! We really enjoyed the bed of greens it was served on. The flavors were delicious.
Love the salad option and flexibility for adults to have salad and protein, kids can have protein and another side from home they like.
So good. Loved the salad bar. Everything tasted great. My only recommendation is adding romaine to some of the salads.
The toasted breadcrumbs were a nice, unique addition. The chicken was pretty basic.
The chicken cutlets were so thick it was taking a long time to cook through, so I ended up slicing them and cooking them that way which sped things up!
Good but I wish there were more topping options. Maybe a different cheese or some nuts?
This one only gets 3 stars because of the Arugula. I am the only one in the house that doesn't gag at the taste of Arugula. Might have preferred a different salad dressing like French or Ranch or even a berry vinaigrette.
Fun to make and everyone chose how to build their plate!
Great meal, too many carrots, maybe have shallots or onions?
