Description
Quick, delicious, and easy-to-make chicken Caesar wraps are perfect for busy weeknights or a satisfying lunch. Featuring tender chicken, crisp romaine, savory Parmesan, and a creamy Caesar dressing all tucked into a soft tortilla.
Ingredients
2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb total), cooked and shredded or diced
4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas or flatbreads
6 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
1/4 cup croutons, crushed (optional, for added crunch)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the chicken. If using raw chicken, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then grill or pan-fry until cooked through (internal temperature 165°F/74°C). Shred or dice the cooked chicken. If using rotisserie or leftover chicken, shred or dice it.
Step 2: Wash and thoroughly dry the romaine lettuce. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3: Lay one large tortilla on a clean, flat surface. Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing down the center, leaving a margin around the edges.
Step 4: Layer about 1 1/2 cups of chopped romaine lettuce over the dressing.
Step 5: Top the romaine with about 1/4 of the shredded or diced chicken.
Step 6: Sprinkle generously with about 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and a small amount of crushed croutons, if using.
Step 7: To roll the wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla about 1-2 inches over the filling. Then, starting from the bottom edge closest to you, tightly roll the tortilla upwards, tucking in the filling as you go to create a snug wrap.
Step 8: Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients. Slice each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and serve immediately. Enjoy your fresh chicken Caesar wraps recipes!
Notes
For best results, make sure your romaine is very dry before adding to the wrap to prevent sogginess. You can prepare the chicken and chop the lettuce ahead of time, storing them separately, and assemble the wraps just before serving. Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick!
