Delicious and easy-to-make chicken Caesar wraps with crispy chicken, fresh romaine, and creamy dressing, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 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
For the Wraps
- 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 / 25cm size
Instructions
Preparation
- Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix the olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Let them sit for about 15 minutes.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat, then add the marinated chicken. Sear for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Let it Rest: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes on a cutting board.
- Chop the Chicken: After resting, chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Searing
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chopped chicken, romaine lettuce, shaved Parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons. Drizzle in the creamy Caesar dressing and toss until everything is evenly coated.
- Wrap it Up: Take a tortilla and place a good amount of the chicken mixture in the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly to enclose the filling.
- Optional Step: For an extra crispy finish, sear the wrapped tortillas on both sides until golden brown.
- Slice and Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally and serve warm.
