A quick and easy 15-minute lunch wrap combining shredded rotisserie chicken, crisp romaine, creamy Caesar dressing, and Parmesan cheese in a warm tortilla.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 to 1 ½ cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons creamy Caesar dressing
  • 2 large flour tortillas (about 10-inch diameter; whole wheat or gluten-free optional)
  • ¼ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional: croutons, sliced cherry tomatoes, dash of hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Remove skin and bones from rotisserie chicken and shred about 1 ½ cups of meat into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry 1 to 1 ½ cups of romaine lettuce. Chop roughly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped romaine, 3 to 4 tablespoons Caesar dressing, ¼ cup grated Parmesan, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Toss gently until well coated. Add black pepper to taste.
  4. Warm each tortilla in a dry non-stick skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable and lightly toasted.
  5. Divide the chicken Caesar mixture evenly onto the center of each tortilla. Optionally add halved cherry tomatoes or croutons.
  6. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly from one edge to the other. Place seam-side down on the skillet and press gently for about 1 minute per side to seal and create a slight crisp.
  7. Slice each wrap diagonally and serve immediately.

Notes

Dry romaine lettuce thoroughly to prevent soggy wraps. Warm tortillas before assembling for pliability. Avoid overdressing to keep wrap from getting soggy. Pre-grated Parmesan is less flavorful than freshly grated. Wrap leftovers tightly and refrigerate up to 2 days; reheat in skillet to maintain crispness.
