Method

 

Marinate & Cook the Chicken

1. In a bowl, combine chicken cubes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
2. Drizzle with 2 tbsp oil, mix well, and marinate for 1–2 hours (optional but recommended).
3. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown.
4. Set aside to cool slightly.

Make the Caesar Dressing

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together:

   – Mayonnaise

   – Dijon mustard

   – Worcestershire sauce

   – Lemon juice

   – Grated garlic

   – Olive oil

   – Parmesan cheese

   – Salt and pepper to taste
2. Thin out with 2–3 tbsp water until you reach your desired consistency. Set aside or chill.

Make the Caesar Salad

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine:

   – Chopped romaine

   – Cooked chicken

   – Grated Parmesan

   – Croutons

   – ½ cup Caesar dressing
2. Mix everything well to coat evenly. Then use a pizza cutter or knife to finely chop the salad mixture right in the bowl.
3. Chopping it all together gives that classic chopped wrap texture and makes every bite flavorful.

Assemble the Wraps

1. Lay a tortilla wrap flat on a clean surface.
2. Add a generous scoop of the chopped Caesar salad mixture to the center.
3. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a burrito-style wrap.

Toast the Wraps

1. Heat a skillet or pan over medium-low heat.
2. Add 1 tbsp oil and place the wrap seam-side down.
3. Toast for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
4. Repeat for remaining wraps.

Serve

1. Slice in half, serve warm, and enjoy with extra Caesar dressing on the side for dipping. These wraps are great with a side of chips, fruit, or a light soup.

Storage & Meal Prep

1. Chicken: Can be cooked and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
2. Dressing: Keep refrigerated in a sealed jar for 5–7 days.
3. Assembled wraps: Best enjoyed fresh. If prepping ahead, keep the salad and wraps separate until ready to toast and serve.

Notes

• Add avocado, or cherry tomatoes for extra flavor.
• Use whole wheat or spinach tortillas for a healthier twist.
• Make it low-carb by skipping the wrap and serving as a chopped Caesar salad bowl.
