Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

For the Wraps

  • 4 flour tortillas (soft and pliable)
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped and crisp
  • 1/3 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the chicken on the grill, cooking each side for 5-7 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, ensuring the meat is nicely charred yet juicy.
  2. Slice the chicken: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes to retain its juices, then slice it into thin strips for easy biting and even flavor distribution in the wraps.
  3. Assemble the wraps: Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing in the center. Add a layer of fresh romaine lettuce, place grilled chicken strips on top, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Add a squeeze of lemon juice if desired for extra brightness.
  4. Wrap it tightly: Fold both ends of the tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom up tightly to form a neat wrap. Optionally, secure with a toothpick or wrap in parchment paper for easy handling and transport.

Notes

  • Don’t skip resting the chicken to keep it juicy and flavorful.
  • Use fresh, crisp romaine lettuce for crunch that contrasts the creamy dressing.
  • Warm tortillas briefly before assembling to prevent cracking.
  • Control the amount of dressing to avoid sogginess while keeping the wrap moist.
  • Grill chicken on medium-high heat for a perfect sear without overcooking.
