Description
Whip up these chicken Caesar wraps in minutes—tender chicken, creamy dressing, crisp romaine, all in a tasty wrap. Perfect for a quick lunch
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skin‑less chicken breasts (about 1 lb total)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas (10‑inch)
- 4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- ½ cup Caesar dressing (store‑bought or homemade)
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup croutons, crushed
- Fresh lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Season the chicken: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the chicken breasts.
- Grill or pan‑sear: Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium‑high heat. Cook the chicken for 6–7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 °F (74 °C). Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
- Warm the tortillas: Place each tortilla on the grill or in a dry skillet for about 15–20 seconds per side, just until pliable.
- Assemble the wraps: Spread 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing on the center of each tortilla. Add a handful of chopped romaine, a few strips of chicken, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and a tablespoon of crushed croutons.
- Fold and roll: Fold the sides in and roll tightly. Slice in half if desired.
- Serve: Garnish with a lemon wedge if you like a citrusy kick. Enjoy immediately or pack for lunch.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is fully cooked but still juicy.
- For extra crunch, toast the croutons lightly in a skillet before adding.
- If you prefer a lighter wrap, replace the Caesar dressing with a Greek yogurt‑based version.
- Keep the tortillas warm to prevent them from tearing when you roll.
