Step 1
Season the 2 chicken breasts with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown on the outside and cooked through (no pink inside), about 6-7 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
Step 3
While the chicken rests, chop the 1 head of romaine into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl. Cut the 1 large tomato into wedges and add to the bowl.
Step 4
Slice the rested chicken into thin strips. Add the chicken to the bowl with the romaine and tomato.
Step 5
Pour 0.5 cup Caesar dressing over the salad and toss well to coat everything evenly.
Step 6
Shave the 0.5 cup Parmesan over the top and finish with a few cracks of black pepper. Serve immediately.
