Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss the romaine with the Caesar dressing and half the parmesan until well coated.
- Lay out each warmed tortilla and layer with the dressed romaine, sliced chicken, remaining parmesan and crushed croutons.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up to form a wrap.
- Slice in half on a diagonal and serve immediately.
Tips for success
- Warming the tortillas briefly makes them more pliable and less likely to crack when rolled.
- Crush the croutons slightly so they distribute more evenly and don't tear through the tortilla.
- Toss the lettuce with dressing right before assembling to prevent a soggy wrap.
- Rotisserie chicken is a convenient shortcut for this recipe.
Frequently asked questions
Can I make chicken Caesar wraps ahead of time?
Assemble them close to eating time for the best texture, since the dressed lettuce can make the tortilla soggy if it sits too long; alternatively, store components separately and assemble just before eating.
Can I use grilled chicken instead of rotisserie?
Yes, either works well — freshly grilled chicken, sliced, is a great option.
How do I keep the wrap from falling apart?
Don't overfill it, fold the sides in before rolling, and wrap it tightly in parchment or foil if transporting it.
Can I make this wrap lighter?
Use a lighter Caesar dressing or a Greek yogurt-based version, and go easy on the parmesan.
