1
Pat the chicken breasts dry and season generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
3
Remove chicken from the pan, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice or dice into bite-sized pieces.
4
While the chicken rests, wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.
5
Add croutons and half of the Parmesan cheese to the lettuce.
6
Drizzle the Caesar dressing over the lettuce mixture. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the salad.
7
Toss everything gently to combine, ensuring the lettuce is evenly coated with dressing.
8
Top the salad with the sliced chicken and remaining Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
