So that it forms the basis of a complete, balanced meal. In fact, I'm
having a Caesar salad with grilled chicken on it for dinner tonight.
No other meat will be served.

Would you find it noteworthy if the grilled chicken were served on a
separate plate? (The salad dressing forms a sauce for the chicken,
by the way.)

I'll agree that we USAians are obsessed with meat. It's hard to
get my husband to consider a meatless meal, although I can manage
it once in a while.
