Chicken Caesar Wraps (Printable)
Grilled chicken with crisp romaine and creamy Caesar in soft tortillas for a satisfying meal.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Chicken
01 - 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 - 1 tbsp olive oil
03 - 1/2 tsp salt
04 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
05 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
→ Caesar Mix
06 - 4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
07 - 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
08 - 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
09 - 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
→ Wrap
10 - 4 large flour tortillas
# How to Prepare:
01 - Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
02 - Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and season evenly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
03 - Place chicken on the preheated pan and grill for 5-7 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
04 - In a large bowl, combine romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and cherry tomatoes. Toss until evenly coated.
05 - Briefly warm tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for 15-20 seconds to increase pliability.
06 - Lay each tortilla flat and spread the salad mixture evenly down the center. Arrange sliced chicken strips on top of the lettuce mixture.
07 - Fold in both sides of each tortilla and roll tightly from bottom to top to form a secure wrap. Slice each wrap in half diagonally before serving.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- Everything you love about Caesar salad but it won't wilt before lunch
- The warm chicken against cold crisp lettuce creates this perfect temperature contrast I didn't know I needed
- You can prep all the components Sunday and eat these all week without that sad leftovers taste
02 -
- The resting period for chicken isn't optional as cutting into it immediately lets all the juices run onto your cutting board instead of staying in the meat
- Overfilling these wraps is how they become unwieldy and fall apart so restraint with the salad mixture actually pays off
03 -
- If your tortillas are stiff and cracking, pop them in the microwave for 15 seconds wrapped in a slightly damp paper towel
- The wrap rolls easier if you pile ingredients slightly off-center toward the bottom third rather than right in the middle
