Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Lightly grease a large baking sheet or pizza stone with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and place it onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone.
Brush the surface of the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Grill or cook the chicken in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice into thin strips.
Arrange the cooked chicken strips over the cheese on the pizza.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the pizza.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
While the pizza is baking, prepare the Caesar salad topping by tossing the chopped romaine lettuce with the Caesar dressing, croutons, and lemon juice in a large bowl.
Once the pizza is out of the oven, allow it to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Spread the Caesar salad mixture evenly over the top of the baked pizza.
Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
