Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice chicken breasts horizontally to create 4-6 thin cutlets. Whisk egg and milk in a shallow bowl. Dip each cutlet in egg mix, coat with breadcrumbs and panko. Heat oil to 350°F and fry cutlets for about 5 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  2. Combine melted butter, minced garlic in a bowl. Spread generously over cut sides of baguette or hoagies. Toast in preheated oven at 450°F for 3-4 minutes until golden.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), lemon juice, Dijon mustard, anchovy paste, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and adjust seasoning.
  4. Layer fried chicken on garlic butter bread. Add romaine lettuce, drizzle Caesar dressing, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, close sandwich and serve immediately.
