05 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
06 - 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs

02 - Brush flatbreads lightly with olive oil and place on a baking sheet.
03 - In a bowl, toss chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian herbs, salt, and black pepper.
04 - Grill chicken over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes per side until fully cooked; rest 5 minutes then slice thinly.
05 - Bake flatbreads in the oven for 5–7 minutes until crisp and golden.
06 - Toss chopped romaine lettuce with half of the Caesar dressing.
07 - Top each warm flatbread with dressed romaine, grilled chicken slices, remaining Caesar dressing, parmesan cheese, and cherry tomatoes if using.
08 - Season with additional black pepper, slice, and serve immediately.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It comes together faster than ordering delivery, and tastes infinitely better.
  • The contrast of crispy flatbread against cool, tangy lettuce feels restaurant-quality but requires zero fancy technique.
  • You can prep the chicken ahead and assemble everything in minutes when hunger hits.
02 -
  • The flatbread must be crispy before you add wet toppings, or it becomes a floppy mess within seconds; bake it fully and let it cool just slightly before assembling.
  • Slicing the chicken against the grain makes it tender and easy to eat; if you slice with the grain, you'll hit chewy texture that's harder to bite through.
03 -
  • If your flatbread starts to soften after assembly, serve it immediately; the moment it sits, the heat from the bread begins wilting everything.
  • A light hand with dressing keeps this dish elegant instead of soggy; remember you can always drizzle more, but you can't take it back.
