Ingredients
- 2 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, sliced or cubed
- 3 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 0.25 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup seasoned croutons, slightly crushed
- 0.33 cup creamy Caesar dressing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons.
- Drizzle the creamy Caesar dressing over the salad mixture and toss thoroughly to coat.
- Add the sliced cooked chicken to the bowl, tossing gently to combine with the dressed salad.
- Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat for 15 seconds on each side to make them pliable.
- Place the warmed tortillas on a clean work surface.
- Divide the chicken Caesar mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla.
- Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly from the bottom to form secure wraps.
- Cut the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Tips
- Warming the tortillas makes them much more flexible and prevents them from tearing while wrapping.
- Crush the croutons slightly so they provide crunch without puncturing the tortilla wrap.
- Dry the romaine lettuce thoroughly after washing so the dressing clings well and does not become watery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
They are best served fresh, but you can prep the ingredients ahead and assemble them right before eating to prevent the tortilla from getting soggy.
What is the best chicken to use?
Grilled chicken breast, rotisserie chicken, or even crispy chicken tenders work wonderfully in this wrap.
How do I keep the wrap from falling apart?
Do not overfill the wrap, fold the sides in tightly first, and roll it snugly like a burrito.
