A good sammie is where it's at when the feeling strikes. I love the Gardein Supreme line! Their chik'n bites are crisp outside & juicy inside. Wedged between grilled ciabatta with a tossed Caesar salad, laods of grana, and red onions.

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat oven according to package directions. Arrange your plant-based bites on the baking sheet. Spray them with cooking spray and season with salt. Bake until golden & crisp..
With 5 minutes remaining on the bites, throw the ciabatta baguette in to warm up.
In the meantime, add your shredded romaine to a mixing bowl along with the grana padano, squeeze of lemon juice, and a generous pinch of both pepper flakes and cracked pepper. Add desired amount of Caesar dressing and toss until saucy and combined. Taste and add additional lemon, grana, or pepper if desired. Set aside.
Preheat a grill pan and remove your warm baguette from the oven. Cut in half so you have two separate ciabatta sammies. Slice them both open and brush the insides with EVOO. Slap them on the preheated grill until crisp with golden brown grill marks.
A S S E M B L Y - Start by scooping some of your tossed romaine on to the bottom of each ciabatta. Slap on some sliced red onions, followed by nestling 4 - 5 chik'n bites in to the Ceasar salad mix. Drizzle with more dressing if desired and grate as much grana padano over the sammies as you desire.
ENJOY!
