Toss together fresh lettuce, grape tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, homemade croutons, and a vegetarian Caesar dressing—then romaine calm while you find yourself unable to resist this BRUT-iful salad.

• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Drain and rinse chickpeas; dry thoroughly with paper towels. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, half the Ranch Spice (all for 4), and ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4). • Roast on top rack for 13 minutes (you’ll add more to the sheet then). (It’s natural for chickpeas to pop a bit while roasting.)
Pat chicken or salmon dry with paper towels, season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken or salmon (skin sides down); cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side, or cook salmon until skin is crisp, 5-7 minutes, then flip and cook until cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
• Quarter lemon. Chop lettuce into bite-size pieces. Halve tomatoes lengthwise. • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, half the mustard, half the hot sauce, 1 tsp soy sauce (we sent more), ½ tsp garlic powder, juice from two lemon wedges, and a big pinch of pepper. (For 4, use all the mustard, all the hot sauce, 2 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp garlic powder, and juice from whole lemon.) (TIP: If needed, add water ½ tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.)
• Cut baguette into ½-inch cubes. TIP: Slice baguette lengthwise, like you’re making a sandwich, then cut each half into ½-inch strips to make cubes. • In a medium bowl, toss bread with remaining garlic powder, 2 TBSP olive oil (4 TBSP for 4 servings), salt, and pepper until coated. • Once chickpeas have roasted 13 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully push chickpeas to one side of sheet. Spread bread out on empty side. (For 4, leave chickpeas roasting. Use a second sheet for bread; toast on middle rack.) • Return to top rack until croutons are golden brown, 5-7 minutes.
• In a large bowl, toss lettuce with as much dressing as you like. Add tomatoes, croutons, half the chickpeas, and half the Parmesan; toss to combine. • Divide salad between plates. Top with remaining chickpeas and remaining Parmesan. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
Slice chicken crosswise. Serve chicken or salmon atop salad.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
