Chef D and Shailynne Woodley prepared chicken Caesar pasta salad today in culinary class. They started by tossing Romaine heart lettuce and noodles in Caesar dressing. Next, they grilled seasoned chicken with olive oil and then cut it in thin slices. They topped it off with freshly grated parmesan cheese and three cherry tomatoes. It looked good and tasted even better!

Chef D and the Greene County Career Academy culinary students made chicken piccata today in class. It was a group effort as they prepared the white wine caper butter sauce and homemade noodles. Senior Afton Poldberg from Panorama High School is featured in two of the attached pictures. This was another delicious dish prepared by our students!
