Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine full-fat mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, black pepper, and sea salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Reserve some for assembling sandwiches.
  2. Evenly pound the chicken cutlets between plastic wrap until about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
  3. Set up a breading station with bowls of all-purpose flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of panko, breadcrumbs, smoked paprika, dried parsley, and other spices.
  4. Heat oil in a skillet until it reaches 175–180°C (350–360°F). Dredge each cutlet in flour, dip in egg, and coat with breadcrumb mixture. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Slice baguettes in half, spread reserved dressing inside, layer with crispy chicken and Caesar salad, then serve immediately.
