Ingredients

Caesar Dressing
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice
- 1 small garlic clove, finely chopped
- 3/4 cup (180 ml) canola oil
- 1 tsp capers, chopped
- 2 tsp (10 ml) anchovy paste
- ¾ cup (55 g) Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Rolls
- 1 cup (85 g) white bread, diced (2 slices of bread)
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) canola oil
- 4 cups (180 g) romaine lettuce, thinly sliced
- 1 cup (215 g) cooked chicken, shredded
- 3 slices cooked bacon, chopped
- 6 round rice paper wrappers, about 9 inches (23 cm) in diameter

Preparation

Caesar Dressing
- In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice and garlic. Add one-third of the oil, drop by drop, whisking constantly. When the emulsion begins to form a mayonnaise, drizzle in the remaining oil, whisking constantly. Add the capers, anchovy paste and Parmesan. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Rolls
- In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the bread in the oil. Let the croutons cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, chicken, bacon and croutons. Toss the salad with half of the Caesar dressing.
- In a shallow dish of hot water, soak one sheet of rice paper at a time for a few seconds or until softened. Remove from the water. Drain and place on a work surface.
- Spoon 3/4 cup of salad onto the bottom third of the rice paper. Fold both sides of the sheet toward the centre. Tightly roll to enclose the filling.
- Cover the roll with a damp cloth and continue with the remaining ingredients.
- Serve with the remaining Caesar dressing.
