Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps
Description
These Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps start with a dressing made by whisking mayonnaise, grated Parmesan, fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and olive oil into a creamy sauce mimicking classic Caesar flavors. The dressing evenly coats shredded rotisserie chicken and torn romaine lettuce, combining savory, tangy, and creamy notes.
Wrapped inside whole-grain tortillas, the mixture creates a convenient and handheld meal with contrasting textures of tender chicken, crisp lettuce, and soft tortilla. The mild garlic and lemon in the dressing brighten the wrap, while Parmesan adds umami depth.
The recipe suggests using rotisserie chicken for convenience, but any cooked shredded chicken works. These wraps can be served immediately or packed for lunches. They offer a balanced portion of protein and greens with a flavorful dressing without heaviness from excessive cheese or creamy dressing.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup mayonnaise light or regular
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice from about 1 large lemon, fresh
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 garlic finely minced, clove
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 cups rotisserie chicken skin and bones discarded, meat shredded into bite-sized pieces
- 1 romaine lettuce torn into bite-sized pieces, heart
- 4 (10-inch) whole-grain tortilla or wrap
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and garlic. Whisk in the olive oil slowly until thoroughly incorporated.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken and lettuce with the dressing. Divide the chicken/lettuce mixture evenly among the tortillas or wraps. Roll and secure with a toothpick, if desired. Serve.
Notes
- If rotisserie chicken is not available, replace it with any cooked, shredded chicken in similar quantity.
- The dressing can be prepared in advance and stored refrigerated to simplify assembly.
- Use whole-grain tortillas for added fiber, but any wrap type can be substituted.
