Follow these simple steps to create your Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad:

1. Cook Pasta: Boil a pot of salted water and cook the rotini or penne according to package instructions. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
2. Prepare Chicken: While the pasta is cooking, ensure your cooked chicken is diced or shredded into bite-sized pieces.
3. Chop Vegetables: Wash and chop the romaine lettuce. Halve the cherry tomatoes and set aside.
4. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, chicken, romaine lettuce, and halved cherry tomatoes.
5. Add Dressing: Pour in the Caesar dressing and toss gently to combine everything evenly. If you prefer a creamier salad, add more dressing as needed.
6. Season: Taste the salad and season with salt and pepper to your liking.
7. Add Cheese: Gently fold in the grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor.
8. Serve Immediately: For the best texture, serve the salad fresh. If you wish, top with croutons and additional Parmesan cheese just before serving.
