Ingredients

For the Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps
  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • salt to taste
  • cracked black pepper to taste
  • cooking spray
  • 4 large plain or spinach flour tortillas
  • 2 ½ cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • ¼ cup Parmesan shavings optional
For the Caesar Salad Dressing
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp shredded Parmesan
  • 2 tbsp PLAIN yogurt
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ¼ tsp garlic granules
  • 4 anchovy filets packed in oil chopped
  • salt to taste
  • cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Using a sharp knife, butterfly the chicken breasts by halving them each down the middle almost the entire way, but still leaving each half connected so they can open up like a book, still in one piece. Flatten the fatter parts of the chicken with the heel of your hand so it cooks evenly, and season well with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over a medium high heat. Spray with cooking spray and cook the chicken for a few minutes on each side until it is golden and cooked through. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  3. To make the dressing blitz the olive oil, shredded parmesan, yogurt, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, garlic granules and anchovies in a bullet blender or mini chopper until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 
  4. Slice the chicken and divide between the wraps along with the romaine lettuce, parmesan shavings and the dressing. 

Notes

  • The parmesan shavings are a delicious addition, but you can leave them out for a lighter wrap.
  • If you can find smoked garlic granules, they’ll add more flavor to the Caesar dressing.
  • Both the chicken and the dressing for these wraps can be made up to 3 days ahead so they’re great for meal prep - the chicken tastes good either warm or cold.
