Chicken Caesar Wrap

The tortilla is also standing in for the croutons, so I don't add them here. Be sure to serve extra dressing on the side in case you want to dunk the whole wrap in it. And of course, if you want to add more ingredients or customize your wrap, please feel free to do so.

Ingredients

  • 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas or whole wheat tortillas (burrito size)
  • 1/2 cup caesar salad dressing (see note 1) plus more for serving
  • 4 cups romaine lettuce shredded (see note 2)
  • 16 ounces cooked chicken shredded or sliced (see note 3)
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Arrange tortillas on a flat surface. Top each with 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing. Spread 1 cup shredded lettuce in the middle of each tortilla, then top with 4 ounces cooked chicken and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
  2. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or wax paper and refrigerate until serving time. Slice in half to serve, and serve with additional dressing if desired.

Notes

  • Caesar dressing: To make my simple homemade version, whisk together 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tbsp. spicy brown mustard, 2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, and 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like ½ tsp. salt and ¼ tsp. pepper). Or, substitute a bottle of store-bought dressing.
  • Romaine lettuce: Romaine is the traditional base for restaurant Caesar salads, so that's what I call for here. Feel free to trade in green leaf lettuce, iceberg lettuce, or butterhead lettuces like Bibb or Boston.
  • Cooked chicken: Leftover chicken from earlier in the week, deli rotisserie chicken, my DIY Rotisserie Chicken; choose your own adventure.
  • Yield: This Chicken Caesar Wrap recipe makes 4 filling wraps. Pair with a salad or side of potato chips and lunch is done.
  • Storage: Since the dressing and lettuce can make the tortillas soggy over time, these are best eaten the day they're made.
