1.5 cups chopped cooked chicken (grilled, pan-seared, or rotisserie)
03 -
80 ml Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)

# How to Make It:
01 -
Combine romaine lettuce, chopped chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and croutons in a large mixing bowl. Gently toss with tongs until all ingredients are evenly coated and distributed. Season lightly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
02 -
Heat each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for 15–30 seconds per side or microwave covered with a damp paper towel for the same duration to enhance pliability.
03 -
Arrange a portion of the chicken Caesar mixture along the center of each warmed tortilla. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly into a wrap. Slice in half if desired and serve immediately.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Prepare all components separately and assemble just before serving to preserve crispness of lettuce and croutons.
02 -
Homemade croutons prepared from cubed day-old bread tossed in olive oil and garlic powder, baked at 190°C for 10–15 minutes, enhance flavor.

Leftover grilled or rotisserie chicken offers quick and convenient protein, while chopped crispy chicken tenders add extra crunch.
