Ingredients
  

For the Chicken

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Caesar Dressing

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas or spinach wraps for a healthier option
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup croutons
  • 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

Marinate and Cook the Chicken

  • Start by seasoning the chicken breasts. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over the chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to an hour for deeper flavor).
  • Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

Make the Caesar Dressing

  • While the chicken cooks, whisk together the mayonnaise, Parmesan, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. This dressing is creamy, tangy, and just the right amount of garlicky.

Assemble the Wraps

  • Lay out the tortillas and spread a generous spoonful of Caesar dressing down the center of each. Layer on the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and croutons. Top with the sliced chicken and a sprinkle of shaved Parmesan.

Wrap It Up

  • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. If you’re taking these on the go, wrap them in parchment paper or foil to keep everything in place.

Notes

  • Warm the Tortillas: Briefly heat the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
  • Customize It: Add avocado, bacon, or even a drizzle of hot sauce for a personal touch.
  • Make It Ahead: Prep the chicken and dressing the night before for a quick assembly the next day.
