This is a combination of my Caesar Salad and my Buffalo Wing recipe. In this case I used chicken breasts.My daughter who is now grown and loves wings went through a stage where she hated wings so I created this recipe for her so when we were having wings she wasn't left out.This is the best Caesar Salad ever!!!...been making this for over 20 years and this is a favorite of my husband and I!!! I especially love that I can throw all the dressing ingredients in my blender!!! Looks complicated but super easy!! The dressing keeps well in the fridge for at least a week.
