Instructions

  • Begin by heating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine all chicken crust ingredients in a food processor: canned chicken, egg, Parmesan, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Process until thoroughly mixed.
  • Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking sheet. With clean, slightly oiled hands, shape the mixture into a circle approximately ¼ inch thick.
  • Place in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, until the crust develops a golden-brown color and feels firm when touched.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
  • While the crust bakes, prepare your dressing by combining all dressing ingredients in a blender and processing until smooth.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce with some Parmesan cheese and enough dressing to coat evenly.
  • Once the crust has cooled slightly, top with the dressed salad.
  • Finish with an additional sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper if desired.
  • Slice and serve immediately.
