Chicken Caesar Wrap with Crunchy Romaine and Parmesan

For a quick weeknight lunch option, this Chicken Caesar Wrap includes cooked chicken and chopped romaine lettuce mixed with a lemon Caesar dressing. Croutons and grated Parmesan add texture and flavor. Warm the tortilla slightly before wrapping so it stays flexible.

Slice romaine lettuce and prepare shredded or diced chicken. Make Caesar dressing with lemon juice and black pepper. Taste the dressing with chicken and lettuce before adding them. Sprinkle half the Parmesan cheese and croutons over the dressing and chicken to provide texture without getting in the way when rolling. The thick dressing holds other ingredients in place. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on sliced wraps.

Heat tortillas, without oil, in a skillet for 15 seconds on each side until they begin to wilt but are not browned. Toss the chicken and lettuce mixture until it has no dry patches. Place filling mixture in the middle of tortillas. Common problems with this recipe include too much filling and filling leakage when tortillas are folded. Crush croutons to prevent air pockets in the filling.

Serve whole or cut on the diagonal with kettle-cooked chips or a pickled spear and tomato soup. For lunch packing, wrap in parchment paper or plastic wrap and store in an airtight container. Leftovers make good sandwiches the next day, they are softer and more flavorful than fresh Caesar sandwiches because the croutons have soaked up the dressing, and the flavors of the Caesar sandwich have blended.
