Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (450g), patted dry
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15ml)
- 1 tsp kosher salt (5g)
- 0.5 tsp black pepper (2g)
- 4 cups romaine lettuce (140g), crisp, chopped, and thoroughly dried
- 0.33 cup shaved parmesan cheese (30g), large flakes
- 1 cup rustic croutons (60g), slightly crushed
- 0.5 cup creamy white Caesar dressing (120ml), thick quality
- 4 large soft white flour tortillas (10-inch/25cm size)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with kosher salt and black pepper. Add them to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Chop the romaine lettuce and prepare the other ingredients while the chicken cooks.
- Toss the chopped romaine lettuce, shaved parmesan cheese, crushed croutons, and creamy Caesar dressing in a large mixing bowl until evenly coated.
- Lay out a tortilla on a flat surface. Place a generous portion of the Caesar salad mixture in the center of the tortilla, top it with sliced chicken, and roll it up tightly. Repeat for each tortilla.
- Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately or keep them wrapped until ready to serve.
Notes
Ensure chicken is patted dry for crispiness. Customize croutons and season the salad to taste.
