Step-by-Step Instructions

Prep Chicken Cutlets: Slice chicken breasts into thin cutlets, ensuring they are easy to handle.

Make Garlic Butter Bread: Combine softened salted butter with minced garlic and spread on hoagies. Toast under broiler until golden (3-4 minutes).
Prepare Dressing: Whisk together mayo, sour cream, Parmesan, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic until smooth.
Assemble Sandwiches: Place fried chicken on toasted bread, top with romaine tossed in dressing, and sprinkle with Parmesan before closing sandwiches.
