Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 2 cups grilled chicken breast, sliced (About 2 medium chicken breasts)
Vegetables & Greens
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
Dressing & Cheese
- 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Wrap & Extras
- 4 large tortillas (10 inches)
- 1/4 cup croutons (Optional for extra crunch)
- Salt and pepper (To taste)
Instructions
- Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet. Grill the chicken breasts for about 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked through. Remove from heat and allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
- Prepare the Caesar Salad Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together thoroughly so the lettuce is coated evenly with the dressing and cheese.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out each tortilla flat on your work surface. Distribute the sliced chicken evenly in the center of each tortilla.
- Add the Salad Mixture: Spoon the prepared Caesar salad evenly over the chicken on each tortilla. If you like added crunch, sprinkle croutons on top.
- Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the filling to taste, based on your preference.
- Wrap it Up: Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla up over the filling, then fold the sides inward. Roll tightly to enclose all the ingredients and form a neat wrap.
- Keep Warm (Optional): If you’re not serving immediately, wrap the wraps in foil or place them in a tortilla warmer to keep them warm and fresh.
- Serve: Cut each wrap in half for easy eating and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious Chicken Caesar Wraps!
