Easy Homemade Chicken Caesar Wrap Recipe
A Chicken Caesar Wrap is a portable and satisfying meal that combines grilled or roasted chicken, crisp romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and a soft tortilla. It’s a flavorful, handheld twist on the classic Caesar salad.
Ingredients
- For the Wraps:
- 2 large tortillas flour or whole wheat
- 2 cups cooked and shredded or diced chicken breast grilled, roasted, or rotisserie
- 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- 1/4 cup Caesar dressing store-bought or homemade
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup croutons optional, for added crunch
- Freshly cracked black pepper optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- If the chicken is not already cooked, season with salt, pepper, and a little olive oil, and grill or pan-fry until fully cooked. Allow it to cool slightly, then slice or shred.
- Assemble the Wraps:
- Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface.
- Spread 1-2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing onto each tortilla.
- Divide the chicken evenly between the two tortillas and place it in the center.
- Top with chopped romaine lettuce, grated Parmesan cheese, and croutons, if using. Sprinkle with freshly cracked black pepper for extra flavor.
- Wrap and Serve:
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap.
- Slice the wrap in half if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Customizable Protein: Swap chicken for grilled shrimp, turkey, or tofu for variety.
- Low-Carb Option: Use a low-carb tortilla or wrap the filling in large lettuce leaves instead.
- Make-Ahead Tips: Prepare all ingredients ahead of time, but assemble the wraps just before serving to prevent sogginess.
- Storage: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or foil and store in the fridge for up to 1 day for a grab-and-go meal.
