Grilled Chicken Caesar Wraps

Grilled Chicken Caesar Wraps combine the best of both worlds: a classic Caesar Salad and a tasty grilled chicken wrap. Wrapped in a soft tortilla, tender grilled chicken is combined with crisp romaine lettuce and creamy Caesar dressing. Parmesan cheese and Parmesan are also added. Ideal for lunch or dinner or to take on picnics and in lunchboxes.

Ingredients:

Grilled Chicken Recipe

• 2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts
• Olive oil 2 tablespoons
• Lemon juice, 1 tablespoon
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• Oregano dried, 1 teaspoon
• To taste: salt and pepper

For the Wraps

• 4 large flour tortillas or whole wheat if you prefer a healthier alternative.
• 3 cups of romaine lettuce, sliced
• Half a cup of shredded Parmesan (or more to taste)
• 1/4 cup Caesar dressing (made or purchased)
• Croutons (optional) for extra crunch
• Garnish with fresh ground black pepper.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the chicken:

• Preheat your grill or grill pan on medium-high heat.
• Rub the chicken breasts in olive oil with lemon juice, garlic, dried oregano and salt.
• Grill the chicken on each side for 6-7 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165degF (74.4degC). The chicken will be fully cooked when the temperature reaches this level. Let the chicken rest on the grill for five minutes before cutting it into thin strips.

2. Assemble your Wraps

• Heat the tortillas for about 10-15 seconds in the microwave to make them pliable.
• Toss the romaine lettuce in a large mixing bowl with Caesar dressing until it is evenly coated.
• Spread the tortillas out flat on a clean surface. Divide the lettuce evenly between the tortillas.
• Sprinkle shredded Parmesan on top of the lettuce. If you like a little extra crunch, add croutons.

3. Roll the Wraps

• Wrapping is as simple as folding the sides and rolling the tortilla tightly up from the bottom. This will cover the entire filling. Repeat the process with all remaining tortillas.

4. Serve:

• Serve immediately with fresh black pepper if desired. Serve with Caesar dressing extra on the side to dip.

Tip and variations:

• Make your own Caesar Dressing with Dijon mustard and lemon juice. You can also add anchovy paste or Worcestershire sauce.
• Grilled Vegetables – Add some grilled vegetables like bell peppers or onions to your wrap for added flavor and texture.
• Add some spice: To give the dressing or marinade a spicy touch, add a few drops of red pepper flakes or hot sauce.
• Healthy Option: For a lighter version of the Caesar dressing, use a low-fat or Greek yogurt-based Caesar. Whole wheat tortillas will add fiber.
• Meal Prep – These wraps make a great meal prep! You can chop lettuce and grill the chicken ahead of time. Assemble the wraps once you are ready to eat. Keep in an airtight container for up to three days.
