Caesar Chicken Salad Wrap (Printable)

Grilled chicken breast with crisp romaine, parmesan, and creamy Caesar dressing wrapped in a soft tortilla.

# What You Need:

→ Chicken

01 - 2 medium boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
04 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
05 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

→ Caesar Salad

06 - 6 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
07 - 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
08 - 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
09 - 1 cup croutons

→ Assembly

10 - 4 large flour tortillas, 10-inch diameter
11 - Freshly ground black pepper to taste

# Directions:

01 - Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and season evenly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
02 - Grill chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
03 - In a large bowl, combine chopped romaine, Caesar dressing, parmesan cheese, and croutons. Toss until evenly coated.
04 - Lay out tortillas and divide Caesar salad mixture evenly among them, placing in the center of each. Top with sliced grilled chicken.
05 - Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll up tightly to form a wrap. Slice in half if desired and serve immediately.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • Everything you love about Caesar salad, but way easier to eat without a fork falling in your lap.
  • The chicken stays juicy, the lettuce stays crisp, and you can actually take this anywhere without it turning into a mess.
  • It feels indulgent but comes together faster than waiting in a drive-through line.
02 -
  • Let the chicken rest after grilling or all the juices will run out onto your cutting board instead of staying inside where they belong.
  • Add the croutons right before assembling, not earlier, or they'll soak up the dressing and lose their crunch completely.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas, it's tempting but they'll split open and you'll end up eating it with a fork anyway.
03 -
  • Warm the tortillas for 10 seconds in the microwave before rolling, they'll fold without tearing and taste softer.
  • Use a serrated knife to slice the wraps cleanly without squishing all the filling out the sides.
  • If you're taking these to go, wrap them tightly in parchment paper and twist the ends like a candy wrapper to keep everything secure.
