Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Press the 12 wonton wrappers into the cups of a standard 12-cup muffin tin so each wrapper forms a cup.
  3. Bake the wonton cups 9–11 minutes, until golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let the cups cool in the tin for 3–5 minutes, then transfer to a plate or rack to finish cooling.
  4. While the cups cool, rinse and dry the romaine lettuce and chop or tear it into bite-size pieces.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped romaine, 2 chicken breasts (cooked and cubed), shaved parmesan, and Caesar salad dressing. Toss until the lettuce and chicken are evenly coated.
  6. Divide the salad mixture evenly among the cooled wonton cups (about 12 servings).
  7. Top each cup with cherry tomatoes (use 24 cherry tomatoes total — about 2 per cup) and sprinkle the 1 cup mini croutons over the cups.
  8. Serve immediately so the wonton cups stay crispy.

Notes

Makes about 12 wonton cups (one per serving).
