- 2 cups (250g) cooked and shredded or grilled chicken – Use rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- 4 large tortillas (whole wheat or regular) – Soft and flexible for easy wrapping.
- 2 cups (120g) chopped romaine lettuce – Fresh and crunchy.
- ½ cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese – Adds a bold, nutty flavor.
- ½ cup (120ml) Caesar dressing – Use homemade or store-bought.
- 1/4 cup (30g) croutons, crushed (optional) – For extra crunch.
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Additions:
- ½ avocado, sliced – Adds creaminess and healthy fats.
- ¼ cup (30g) crispy bacon bits – For a smoky, savory flavor.
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice – Brightens up the flavors.
Prepare the Chicken: If using raw chicken, grill or pan-sear until fully cooked, then slice or shred. If using pre-cooked chicken, warm it up slightly for better texture. Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing evenly across the center. Layer the Ingredients: Add a handful of chopped romaine lettuce, followed by the cooked chicken, Parmesan cheese, and optional croutons. Add Extra Flavor: If using avocado, bacon, or lemon juice, add them on top of the other ingredients. Roll the Wrap: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up. Secure with a toothpick if needed. Serve and Enjoy: Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap in foil for a grab-and-go meal.
