Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 2 grilled chicken breasts (about 68 oz each)

Vegetables & Greens

  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce

Dairy

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Condiments & Seasonings

  • 1/4 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for marinating chicken)

Wrap/Base

  • 4 whole wheat or flour tortillas (8-inch size)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Marinate the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder (if using), salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Grill over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and nicely charred. Let rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly to keep the wrap neat and easy to bite.
  2. Prepare the Wrap Base: Wash and dry the romaine lettuce thoroughly to maintain crispness. Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface and spread a thin, even layer of Caesar dressing on each tortilla. This adds flavor and helps hold the wrap together.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Evenly layer the sliced grilled chicken over the dressed tortillas. Next, add the chopped romaine lettuce, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and optionally squeeze fresh lemon juice over the filling for brightness. Season lightly with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Roll and Serve: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly to enclose the fillings. Secure with a toothpick or press the seam gently to keep it closed. Slice the wrap diagonally in half and enjoy immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for an easy packed lunch.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken briefly (minimum 15 minutes) for enhanced flavor.
  • Use fresh, crisp romaine lettuce for the best texture—avoid wilted leaves.
  • Do not overload the wraps to prevent tearing or sogginess.
  • Warm tortillas lightly before assembling to make them more pliable.
  • Consider making your own Caesar dressing for a personalized touch.
