02 - Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
03 - In a large bowl, toss chopped romaine with Caesar dressing until lightly coated.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It hits that perfect spot between salad and pizza without feeling like a compromise.
  • The crisp flatbread soaks up just enough dressing to stay flavorful but not soggy.
  • You can have dinner on the table in under half an hour, even on a weeknight.
  • It's endlessly customizable based on what you have or what you're craving.
02 -
  • Let the chicken rest after cooking or it will lose all its juices the moment you slice into it.
  • Don't overdress the lettuce, you can always add more but you can't take it back once it's wilted.
  • Brush both sides of the flatbread with oil or it will dry out instead of crisping up.
03 -
  • Grill the chicken instead of pan-cooking it for a smoky, charred flavor that takes this to the next level.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan instead of pre-shredded, it melts better and tastes sharper and nuttier.
  • If your flatbreads are getting soggy, pop them back in the oven for a minute or two before serving to crisp them up again.
