Description
Delightful chicken Caesar wraps featuring crispy chicken, fresh romaine, and creamy dressing, perfect for lunch or a light dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (450g) patted dry
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15ml)
- 1 tsp kosher salt (5g)
- 0.5 tsp black pepper (2g)
- 4 cups romaine lettuce (140g) crisp, chopped, and thoroughly dried
- 0.33 cup shaved parmesan cheese (30g) large flakes
- 1 cup rustic croutons (60g) slightly crushed
- 0.5 cup creamy white Caesar dressing (120ml) thick quality
- 4 large soft white flour tortillas (10-inch or 25cm size)
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). If you’re using a skillet, heat it over medium-high heat on the stove.
- Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper. If you want a little more flavor, consider marinating the chicken with spices beforehand.
- Sear the chicken in the hot skillet until it’s golden brown on both sides, about 5-6 minutes per side. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes and then slice it into strips.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, shaved parmesan, and rustic croutons. Drizzle the creamy Caesar dressing over the salad and toss gently.
- Lay the tortilla on a flat surface and place a good amount of the salad mixture in the center. Add the sliced chicken on top.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and then roll from the bottom to top tightly.
- Cut the wrap in half at an angle for easy eating.
Notes
Serve fresh with extra Caesar dressing or your favorite dipping sauce. Pair with fries or light soup for a complete meal.
