With processor running, slowly pour in olive oil.  Add water, if desired, for a thinner consistency.  Refrigerate until service.

    Place 3 ounces romaine in serving bowl.  Top with 2 tablespoons Caesar dressing, 5 ounces Calabash chicken, ½ cup reserved croutons and 1 ounce shaved Parmesan.   Place 2 tablespoons Caesar dressing in a dressing cup and serve on the side with the salad.
