Main Ingredients
- Grilled chicken breast, sliced – about 6 ounces
- Romaine lettuce, chopped – 1 to 2 cups
- Caesar dressing – 2 to 3 tablespoons
- Shredded Parmesan cheese – 2 tablespoons
- Flour tortillas – 2 large
- Fresh ground black pepper – to taste
- Lemon juice (optional) – 1 teaspoon
- Prepare the chicken: Grill or pan-sear chicken breasts seasoned with salt, pepper, and olive oil until cooked through and golden brown. Let the chicken rest briefly, then slice into thin strips to keep it juicy.
- Wash and chop the lettuce: Rinse romaine lettuce thoroughly, then chop or tear into bite-sized pieces for a crisp texture inside the wrap.
- Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine sliced chicken, chopped lettuce, a generous drizzle of Caesar dressing, and shredded Parmesan cheese. Toss gently to evenly coat without sogginess.
- Assemble the wrap: Lay a flour tortilla flat and spoon the chicken Caesar mixture down the center. Add fresh ground black pepper to taste. Fold the sides in and roll up tightly to seal all ingredients inside.
- Serve and enjoy: Optionally, cut the wrap diagonally for easy handling and an attractive presentation. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil to take on the go.
Notes
- Use warm tortillas to make folding easier and improve texture.
- Toss lettuce with dressing just before assembling to prevent sogginess.
- Slice chicken thinly to better distribute flavor and ease eating.
- Season chicken with salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder for extra taste.
- Customize Caesar dressing with lemon juice or fresh herbs for a personal touch.
