Scale
For the Chicken Caesar Wrap:
- 3 cups chopped rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken
- 3 packed cups Romaine lettuce (about 2/3 head)
- 1 cup heaping (6 oz) grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/3 cup slightly packed, finely shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 avocado diced
- 5 burrito size tortillas, whole wheat or white, warmed
For the Caesar Dressing:
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 4 anchovy fillets, mashed finely to a paste (1 1/2 tsp paste)
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp minced garlic (1 clove)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- For the dressing: Whisk all dressing ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- For the wraps: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese. Drizzle dressing over and toss to coat evenly. Add avocado and gently toss to distribute.
- Layer the salad mixture over tortillas in a row in the center, then wrap (you can also tuck ends in before wrapping so the filling doesn’t fall out the end).
- Cut wraps in half to serve.
Notes
- You can customize this wrap by adding croutons for extra crunch or bacon for added flavor.
- The Caesar dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
