Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Bake the flatbreads
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and place a sheet pan inside to heat as the oven warms.
  2. Brush each flatbread lightly with olive oil mixed with minced garlic and garlic powder.
  3. Bake for 8–10 minutes until crispy and golden at the edges.
Assemble and finish
  1. Remove the flatbreads from the oven and drizzle Caesar dressing over each one.
  2. Top with shredded romaine, sliced chicken, and parmesan shavings.
  3. Finish with cracked black pepper and a squeeze of lemon; slice and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crisp edges, use thinner naan/flatbreads and bake on a preheated sheet pan. Assemble right after baking so the romaine stays crisp; refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days, but expect texture softening. Freezing is not recommended due to lettuce. If you want a lower-fat option, use light Caesar dressing and reduce parmesan to 1/4 cup.
