  2. Prepare the garlic butter by melting salted butter in a bowl. Add minced garlic and chopped parsley, then spread garlic butter on split hoagies or baguette. Toast in the oven at 450°F for 3-4 minutes until golden.
  3. Whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, anchovy paste, and minced garlic in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  4. Toss chopped romaine lettuce with 3-4 tablespoons of the dressing until evenly coated, but keep it crisp.
  5. Assemble the sandwiches with crispy chicken on garlic butter toast, topped with dressed romaine and extra Parmesan cheese. Serve warm.
