Season the chicken with salt and black pepper. Cook it in a lightly oiled frying pan over medium heat for 6–8 minutes per side, until cooked through. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
Shred the Little Gem lettuce and grate the Parmesan. Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry pan so they are flexible.
Spread Caesar dressing over each tortilla, leaving a small border. Add the lettuce, sliced chicken and Parmesan in an even line across the centre.
Fold in the two short ends, then roll each tortilla tightly around the filling. Cut the wraps in half on the diagonal and serve, or chill them wrapped for a packed lunch.
Notes
For a healthier version, you can substitute whole wheat tortillas and use a low-calorie Caesar dressing. Adding slices of avocado or bacon can enhance the flavor and texture of the wraps.
About this recipe
These Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps turn the familiar salad into a practical lunch, with tender chicken and crisp lettuce tucked into soft tortillas. Parmesan and a creamy Caesar dressing bring the savoury, tangy character of a classic Caesar without needing a knife and fork.
The filling is best kept well chilled before rolling, so the lettuce stays fresh and the wraps hold their shape. Warm the tortillas briefly if they feel stiff, then fold in the ends as you roll. Cut them diagonally for serving, or wrap them whole for a packed lunch.
