Caesarsallad dressing lchf

To make this keto Caesar dressing you’ll need homemade mayo and anchovies.

Instructions

To make a Caesar salad you can either layer ingredients in your serving dish and add the dressing at the end, or you can make it in a large bowl, add the dressing and mix gently with your hands to ensure all the salad is coated with your homemade mayonnaise.

You'll notice right away that all the ingredients contribute to the great taste, so don't skip any.

Simple dressing without additives

There are many delicious salad dressings to choose from. When the skillet/griddle is hot, add the chicken and cook, turning as needed, until fully cooked through and no longer pink.

Ready-made dressings often contain unhealthy oils such as canola oil or sunflower oil and often contain added sugars and starches that don’t fir in with your keto diet. The paper helps to absorb any excess water and helps to keep the lettuce crisp.

Make your mayonnaise and pour it into a jar with a lid.

Diced cooked bacon pieces, a poached egg, sliced boiled egg, cooked shrimp, cooked prawns, or a low-carb vegetarian source of protein.

Herbs and seasoning

The cheeses and Caesar dressing are both delicious, but you might also want to add garlic powder, dried onion flakes, bagel seasoning,

Storage

Just like any fresh salad, this keto Caesar salad recipe will be best if enjoyed right away.

Pour into a glass bottle/jar and store in the fridge (up to 2 weeks) until ready to use. However, this is a high-protein salad with moderate-high fat and low-carbs, so the ingredients will be slightly different. As you’ll see below, you can omit or swap many of these to create a salad you are happy with:

All ingredients and quantities are in the recipe card below.

Romaine lettuce – high in water, fibre, minerals, and vitamins like C and K, I love the crunch that romaine lettuce offers.

Cucumber – a standard Caesar salad recipe has croutons (made from wheat bread), which is not keto-friendly.

Simply ask for no croutons, extra cheese, extra chicken, and often a poached egg is available as a salad optional extra. Remove from skillet and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. I can imagine that many people have eaten a classic Caesar salad with chicken at some point and had this delicious dressing. What's more, a homemade dressing tends to taste much better.

The dressing is also incredibly easy to make.

With my recipe, there are no artificial flavors, dyes or e-numbers.

I prefer to layer it on the plate and leave the dressing on the table so everyone can add the quantity they prefer.

There are many opinions on what exactly should go into a classic Caesar salad, but in reality, you can add what you like. Now the sauce will start to thicken a little at a time.Once you have a base, start to wiggle the hand blender a little so that it starts to draw down the rest of the oil.
