1 cup (150-170 gram) Popcorn Chicken, frozen

Preparation

Preheat oven according to the tot package instructions.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the frozen tots out in an even layer. Bake for 8 minutes just until slightly softened, remove from oven. Using the bottom of a glass, measuring cup, or spatula, gently press each tots down until flattened to about 1/2-inch thick. Return to oven and bake for 15-20 minutes more, or until golden brown and crispy around the edges. The crispier, the better.
While the tots finish baking, cook the popcorn chicken according to package instructions until hot and crispy.
Thinly slice the romaine and place it into a large mixing bowl. Add your favorite Caesar dressing and toss until evenly coated.
Add the crispy smashed tots, popcorn chicken, and parmesan to the bowl. Toss gently to combine. Top with extra parmesan and black pepper. Serve immediately while the tots are still crispy.
