  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 wraps

Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 2 lb boneless chicken breast, cut into cubes
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

For the Caesar Dressing

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ⅔ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 23 tablespoons water, to thin if needed

For the Caesar Salad Mix

  • 4 cups lettuce, finely chopped and dried
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • ½ cup croutons
  • ½ cup Caesar dressing

To Assemble

  • 4 large tortilla wraps
  • 4 tablespoons oil, for toasting

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, season chicken cubes with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the chicken and toss well to coat evenly.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and extra crispy on the outside. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Make the Caesar Dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, grated garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water if needed to reach desired consistency. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  4. Prepare the Caesar Salad Mix: In a large bowl, combine finely chopped lettuce, ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, croutons, and ½ cup of the prepared Caesar dressing. Toss gently to incorporate all ingredients.
  5. Toast the Wraps: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush each tortilla wrap with 1 tablespoon of oil on both sides. Toast each wrap for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove from heat.
  6. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a toasted tortilla flat. Spoon a generous portion of the Caesar salad mix onto the center, followed by the crispy chicken cubes. Fold the sides in and roll tightly to form a wrap.
  7. Serve: Slice the wrap in half if desired and serve immediately while warm and crunchy.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • You can substitute chicken breast with chicken thighs for a juicier wrap.
  • If you prefer a lighter dressing, use low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt as a base.
  • Wraps can be prepped in advance and toasted right before serving.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas to make this recipe gluten-free.
