Ingredients
Scale
Salad Ingredients
- 3 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- 1 1/2 cups chopped grilled, fried, or rotisserie chicken
- 1/3 cup Caesar dressing
- 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup homemade croutons
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Wraps
- 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the Salad: In a large bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, chopped chicken, Caesar dressing, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and homemade croutons. Toss everything well to ensure the dressing coats all ingredients evenly. Season with salt and black pepper according to your taste.
- Warm the Tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas either in a hot pan for about 20-30 seconds per side or in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds until they become soft and pliable, which will make rolling easier.
- Assemble the Wraps: Divide the prepared salad mixture evenly among the warmed tortillas. Fold in the sides and roll up the tortillas burrito-style, securing them with toothpicks if necessary to prevent unrolling.
- Serve: Serve the wraps whole or cut them in half diagonally for a more attractive presentation. Enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use grilled, fried, or rotisserie chicken according to preference or ingredient availability.
- Homemade croutons add a crunchy texture; store-bought may be used as a shortcut.
- For a healthier option, whole wheat tortillas can substitute flour tortillas.
- To add extra flavor, consider adding sliced tomatoes or avocado inside the wrap.
- Wraps are best served fresh but can be wrapped tightly in foil and refrigerated for up to one day.
