Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, chopped or shredded (about 2 medium breasts)
  • 4 large flour tortillas (whole wheat or gluten-free optional)
  • 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped
  • ½ cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • ⅓ cup shredded or shaved Parmesan cheese

Optional Add-ins

  • ¼ cup crumbled bacon
  • 1 medium avocado, sliced
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved

For Homemade Caesar Dressing (optional)

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: If using raw chicken, season it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Grill or bake the chicken until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side depending on thickness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces for better texture and juiciness.
  2. Craft the Caesar Dressing: For a homemade dressing, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste. Alternatively, use store-bought Caesar dressing to save time.
  3. Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of Caesar dressing over the entire tortilla. Add a generous handful of chopped Romaine lettuce, then arrange the cooked chicken pieces on top. Sprinkle the shredded or shaved Parmesan cheese evenly. Add any optional ingredients like crumbled bacon, sliced avocado, or halved cherry tomatoes if desired.
  4. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla gently, then roll it tightly from one end to the other to secure the filling. Use a sharp knife to slice the wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and presentation.

Notes

  • For a healthier version, use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas.
  • To prepare chicken in advance, poach or bake and refrigerate, then assemble wraps when ready.
  • Make homemade Caesar dressing ahead and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Customize your wrap by adding your favorite vegetables or swapping chicken for grilled tofu for a vegetarian option.
  • If packing for lunch, wrap tightly in foil or parchment paper to keep it fresh and prevent sogginess.
