Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breast or thighs
- 8 large burrito-size flour tortillas
- 16 Romaine lettuce leaves
- 4 ounces alfalfa sprouts
- 2 plum tomatoes
- 1 ripe avocado
- 8 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup caesar dressing
- lemon pepper seasoning
- salt
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium heat. Sprinkle the boneless skinless chicken pieces liberally with lemon pepper seasoning and salt.
- Once the grill is hot, grill the chicken pieces for 5 minutes per side. Then move them to a cutting board and allow them to rest for at least 5 minutes. Once the chicken has cooled chop it into ½ inch cubes.
- Meanwhile, trim the romaine lettuce leaves to be 3 inches shorter than the flour tortillas. Chop the tomatoes into ½ inch cubes. Then chop the avocado into ½ inch cubes as well.
- To Assemble: Lay a tortilla out on a cutting board. (If the tortillas are not pliable, briefly warm them in the micriwave for 5-10 seconds.) Place the trimmed lettuce leaves over the tortilla, side by side. Sprinkle half an ounce of alfalfa sprouts over the lettuce leaves, followed by a good drizzle of Caesar dressing, about 1 ½ tablespoons per wrap. Arrange approximately 1/4 cup of chopped chicken down the length of one lettuce leaf. Then arrange 2 tablespoons of diced tomatoes and 2 tablespoons of diced avocado over the lettuce leaves. Sprinkle 1 ounce of shredded cheese over the top of the tomatoes and avocados.
- To Roll: Fold the ends of the tortilla over the short ends of the lettuce leaves. Then starting on one long edge, roll the wrap like a burrito tucking in the ends as you roll. The final product should be one equally portioned cylinder with the ends completely tucked inward. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the wrap seam-side down and cut each wrap down the center, at an angle. Either wrap in plastic and refrigerate for later, or serve immediately.
