Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain and set aside to cool.
Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a large pot, then season them lightly with salt and pepper.Cover the chicken with 1 inch of water.
Step 3

Place the pot on the stove and bring the water to a boil. Once boiled, reduce the heat and let simmer until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F or is no longer pink in the center, about 8 to 16 minutes.
Step 4

Remove the chicken from water and let rest until cool enough to handle. Cut into bite-size pieces.
Step 5

Add the pasta to a large serving bowl. Top with the chicken, romaine, tomatoes, croutons, and parmesan. Drizzle with caesar dressing and toss to combine. Enjoy cold or at room temperature.
