Instructions

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Pro tip: Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the seasoning for better flavour.

Cook the Chicken

Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Pro tip: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature at the thickest part of the breast.

Assemble the Wraps

Lay a tortilla flat and spread 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing over it. Add a layer of chopped romaine lettuce.

Pro tip: Leave about 2 cm (1 inch) around the edges of the tortilla for easy wrapping.

Add the Chicken and Toppings

Place sliced chicken, Parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons over the lettuce.

Pro tip: For extra crunch, add more croutons to your liking.

Wrap It Up

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

Pro tip: Keep the wrap tight to prevent ingredients from spilling out.

Serve

Cut the wraps diagonally in half and serve immediately.

Pro tip: For a fancier presentation, use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts.

Serving Suggestions

These Chicken Caesar Wraps are best enjoyed fresh, but you can prepare the ingredients ahead of time and assemble just before serving. Pair them with a light soup or a side of vegetable sticks for a complete meal. If you have leftovers, store the components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to two days. This will keep the lettuce crisp and the wraps easy to assemble later.
