Method
 

Preparing the Pizza
  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) or prepare your grill for direct heat cooking.
  2. Allow pizza dough to rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes, then stretch it out on a floured surface.
  3. Brush the dough with olive oil mixed with smashed garlic, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Transfer the dough onto the preheated grill or pizza stone and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
Mixing the Salad Topping
  1. Combine chopped romaine, wedge-cut tomatoes, and half of the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano in a large bowl.
  2. Drizzle Caesar dressing over the salad mixture and toss until thoroughly coated.
Finishing Touches
  1. Once the pizza crust is golden, remove it from the heat and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
  2. Top the pizza with the mixed salad, allowing the ingredients to rest on the warm crust.
  3. Sprinkle the remaining Parmigiano-Reggiano over the top before serving.
