Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup Caesar dressing (preferably light or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: croutons, cherry tomatoes, or extra cheese for topping
Instructions
- Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a splash of olive oil. Grill or pan-fry them over medium heat until fully cooked and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes per side. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice into thin strips.
- Lay out your tortillas on a flat surface. Spread a generous layer of Caesar dressing over each tortilla. Add chopped romaine lettuce, sliced grilled chicken, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and add optional toppings like croutons or cherry tomatoes.
- Fold sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly to enclose the filling. For extra crunch, toast the wraps in a skillet until golden and cheese melts. Serve immediately or wrap for on-the-go meals.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt mixed with Parmesan for a healthier, creamy dressing alternative.
- Grill chicken in advance for quick meal prep.
- Opt for whole wheat or spinach tortillas to boost fiber and nutrients.
- Add more vegetables like bell peppers or cucumbers for extra crunch and vitamins.
- Secure the wrap with toothpicks or wrap tightly to prevent spilling.
