Ingredients
  

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 3 cups garlic Parmesan flavored pretzels
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup vegetable oil for frying
  • 3 cups baby romain lettuce
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons miso paste
  • ½ cup Muenster cheese
  • ¼ cup croutons
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat. Use a food processor to pulse the pretzels into a powder.
  • Whisk the egg in a small bowl. Cut the chicken into long strips.
  • Dip the chicken strips into the egg, then into the powdered pretzels, then back into the egg and back into the pretzels for a thick breading.
  • Fry each strip in the skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, until the breading is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
  • While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the Greek yogurt, white vinegar, black pepper, and miso paste.
  • Gently toss the baby romaine lettuce in half of the dressing so it's completely covered. Garnish the salad with any remaining Muenster cheese and croutons.
  • Reserve any remaining sauce for dipping the chicken in. Serve alongside the appetizer round and enjoy!
