RenderFlex issue with Text widget nested in Row in Flutter

Question

I am using the below widget in a list view builder to list the array index wise, which is working alright, but when the text is overflowed as shown in the screenshot attached, the code below is implemented for the same, how should I rectify it?

Row(
  crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
  children: <Widget>[
    Text(
      //"STEPS ${index + 1}",
      "${index + 1}.  ${widget.steps[index]['step']}",
      style: TextStyle(
        color: Colors.black45,
        fontFamily: 'Montserrat',
        fontSize: 16,
        fontWeight: FontWeight.w400
      ),
    ),
  ],
)
