This wrap takes a classic Caesar salad and rolls it into a tortilla, layering crisp romaine, sliced chicken, and Parmesan in a homemade or store-bought Caesar dressing. It's flexible enough to build with grilled, baked, or leftover chicken, and it comes together in about 25 minutes total. Bacon and avocado add extra richness if you want to dress it up.

Sliced chicken, romaine, and Parmesan are rolled in a tortilla with Caesar dressing for a portable take on the classic salad.

  • Fast: ready in about 25 minutes (10 min prep, 15 min cook)
  • Simple: 8 everyday ingredients
  • Feeds the family: 4 servings
  • Light: about 350 calories per serving

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast (chopped or shredded (about 2 medium breasts))
  • 4 large flour tortillas (whole wheat or gluten-free optional)
  • 2 cups Romaine lettuce (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/3 cup shredded or shaved Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup crumbled bacon
  • 1 medium avocado (sliced)
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)

Instructions

  1. If using raw chicken, season it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then grill or bake until fully cooked.
  2. Let it rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
  3. For a homemade dressing, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and Parmesan, adjusting to taste.
  4. Store-bought dressing works well too if you want a quicker option.
  5. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  6. Spread a thin layer of Caesar dressing over the tortilla.
  7. Add a handful of romaine lettuce, followed by the chicken slices, Parmesan cheese, and any optional add-ins.
  8. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from one end to the other.
  9. Slice in half for easier handling before serving.

Cooking Tips

  • Let the cooked chicken rest before slicing so it stays juicy inside the wrap.
  • Spread the dressing thinly and evenly so every bite gets flavor without sogginess.
  • Roll the wrap tightly so it holds together when sliced in half.

Substitutions

  • Rotisserie chicken can replace freshly cooked chicken breast.
  • Whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas can be used instead of regular flour tortillas.
  • A light Caesar dressing can be used for a lower-calorie version.

Storage

  • Best eaten fresh, since the lettuce and dressing can make the tortilla soggy if stored too long.
  • If prepping ahead, store the components separately and assemble just before eating.

Serving Suggestions

  • Slice in half for easier handling.
  • Serve with a side of fruit or a light soup.
  • Add extra Parmesan on top just before serving.
