Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice boneless, skinless chicken breasts into thin cutlets. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk egg and milk mixture in a shallow bowl, then dip chicken cutlets and coat with breadcrumbs.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat to 350°F. Fry breaded chicken cutlets for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to a towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  3. Prepare garlic butter by melting butter in a small bowl. Stir in minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese until combined.
  4. Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut hoagies or baguette in half, spread garlic butter on cut sides, and toast in the oven for about 3-4 minutes until golden.
  5. Whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and anchovy paste in a bowl. Add minced garlic and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Layer crispy fried chicken onto one half of toasted garlic bread. Add romaine lettuce dressed with Caesar dressing, sprinkle Parmesan cheese, and top with the other half of toasted bread. Serve immediately.
