A quick and easy no-cook lunch wrap featuring grilled chicken, romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, and Parmesan cheese wrapped in a soft tortilla. Ready in under 5 minutes, perfect for a light meal or on-the-go lunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (about 10 oz) cooked grilled chicken breast, sliced or shredded
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped or torn into bite-sized pieces
  • ⅓ cup (about 2.7 fl oz) Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • ¼ cup (about 1 oz) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas, warmed slightly
  • Optional add-ins:
  • ½ cup crumbled croutons
  • Squeeze of lemon juice
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces, slice or shred the cooked grilled chicken, and grate the Parmesan cheese.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine, chicken, Caesar dressing, and grated Parmesan. Toss gently with a spatula or spoon until everything is evenly coated, being careful not to overmix to keep the lettuce crisp.
  3. Optional: Warm the tortillas one at a time in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15 seconds per side, or microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel for 20 seconds to make folding easier.
  4. Lay a tortilla flat and spoon about ¾ cup (90g) of the chicken Caesar mixture down the center. If desired, sprinkle crumbled croutons on top for extra crunch.
  5. Fold the sides over and roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.
  6. Cut the wrap diagonally if preferred, or leave whole for easy eating on the go. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil if packing for later.

Notes

Use day-old cooked chicken for firmer texture. Dry lettuce well to avoid sogginess. Warm tortillas gently to prevent cracking. Wrap tightly to keep filling secure. Add croutons just before serving to maintain crunch. Can be made gluten-free by using corn or gluten-free wraps and dairy-free by substituting vegan Caesar dressing and cheese.
