Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cooked chicken breast, sliced into strips
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Caesar dressing
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large flour tortilla

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup croutons (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Start with cooked chicken breast sliced into thin strips or bite-sized pieces. If using raw chicken, season quickly and grill until cooked through, then slice.
  2. Wash and chop lettuce: Rinse fresh romaine lettuce thoroughly and chop it into bite-sized pieces to keep the wrap crisp and refreshing.
  3. Toss lettuce with Caesar dressing: In a bowl, combine the chopped lettuce with enough Caesar dressing to lightly coat the leaves for maximum flavor balance.
  4. Assemble the wrap: Lay a soft tortilla flat and evenly layer the dressed lettuce, chicken slices, and a generous sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Add croutons or lemon juice if desired.
  5. Wrap it up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to fully encase the filling, making it easy to eat on the go.

Notes

  • Use warm tortillas for easier wrapping and enhanced flavor.
  • Coat lettuce lightly with dressing to avoid sogginess.
  • Prep chicken ahead of time to save time when assembling.
  • Ensure lettuce is well dried after washing to maintain crispness.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for a stronger, authentic taste.
