Description
Enjoy the classic flavors of a Chicken Caesar Salad in a handheld wrap that’s perfect for lunches, picnics, or quick dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large grilled chicken breasts, sliced (about 16 oz total)
- 4 whole-grain tortillas (8-inch)
- 3 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup croutons (about 1 cup loosely packed)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- Cherry tomatoes, halved (optional; about 1 cup)
Instructions
- If not already cooked, season chicken breasts with salt and pepper and grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), about 6–8 minutes per side for large breasts. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
- Chop the romaine and halve cherry tomatoes. Measure croutons and grate the Parmesan if needed.
- In a large bowl, combine chopped romaine, sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes (if using), and Parmesan. Add Caesar dressing and toss gently to coat, being careful not to overmix.
- Mix in croutons last to keep them crunchy.
- Warm tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave for 10–15 seconds to make them pliable.
- Lay each tortilla flat and spoon a quarter of the chicken-Caesar mixture into the center. Fold sides and roll tightly from the bottom, tucking ingredients as you go.
- Slice each wrap on the diagonal and secure with a toothpick if needed.
Notes
To reduce calories and sodium, use a lighter dressing or a homemade version. Add croutons just before serving to maintain their crunch.
