Instructions

01
Preheat oven to 425°F and place baking sheet inside to heat for crispy flatbread base.
02
Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper evenly.
03
Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering and ready for cooking.
04
Add seasoned chicken breasts to hot skillet and cook 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown.
05
Check internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove chicken and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
06
Slice cooked chicken into thin strips or bite-sized pieces for easy flatbread topping distribution.
07
Prepare Caesar dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic, and Parmesan cheese.
08
Add Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced anchovies, salt, and pepper to dressing mixture.
09
Whisk dressing until smooth and creamy, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed for balance.
10
Brush flatbread rounds with olive oil mixed with minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
11
Place seasoned flatbreads on preheated baking sheet and bake 5-7 minutes until lightly golden.
12
Remove flatbreads from oven and spread thin layer of Caesar dressing over entire surface evenly.
13
Distribute sliced chicken pieces evenly across both flatbreads, leaving small border around edges.
14
Sprinkle half of the grated Parmesan cheese over chicken for rich, nutty flavor base.
15
Return flatbreads to oven and bake additional 5-8 minutes until cheese melts and edges are crispy.
16
While flatbreads bake, toss chopped romaine lettuce with remaining Caesar dressing until coated.
17
Remove flatbreads from oven and immediately top with dressed romaine lettuce for fresh contrast.
18
Sprinkle remaining Parmesan cheese over lettuce along with cherry tomatoes and red onion slices.
19
Add any desired toppings like croutons, pine nuts, or bacon bits for extra texture and flavor.
20
Garnish with fresh parsley and red pepper flakes if desired for color and mild heat.
21
Let flatbreads cool 2-3 minutes to allow toppings to settle before cutting into serving portions.
22
Cut each flatbread into 4-6 wedges using sharp knife or pizza cutter for clean slices.
23
Serve immediately while flatbread is still warm and lettuce maintains its fresh crispness.
24
Drizzle with additional Caesar dressing if desired and offer lemon wedges on the side.
25
Store any leftovers covered in refrigerator, though best enjoyed fresh and warm from oven.
