Chicken Caesar Wraps
These deeply satisfying chicken Caesar wraps are the answer to all of your weekday lunch woes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound about ½ kilo chicken breast, cubed
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cups (150g) romaine lettuce or lacinato kale, chopped
- ¼ cup (20g) grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- ½ cup (20g) croutons
- 4-6 tablespoons (60-90g) Caesar dressing (homemade, or a good-quality refrigerated dressing, such as Marzetti’s)
- 4 large (burrito-size) flour tortillas, plain or spinach, warmed
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
- Add the chicken breast to a large bowl with the Cajun seasoning, salt, and olive oil, and stir to combine.
Step 2
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet, such as cast iron, until hot. Add the chicken and allow to cook for 4-5 minutes, undisturbed, allowing the chicken to form a brown crust. Turn, and cook until browned on the other side and cooked throughout.
Step 3
- Mix the lettuce, cheese, croutons, and Caesar dressing until well-combined.
Step 4
- Add the warm chicken, and toss again. Divide the mixture between each tortilla.
Step 5
- Wrap tightly, cut in half on the diagonal, and serve immediately.At the office, to make things easier, I spread the Caesar dressing over the tortilla, add in the remaining ingredients, and fold up the tortilla.
TIP:
- To store your greens in the refrigerator, dry them well and chop them as soon as possible after purchasing. Place in a Ziplock bag with a few paper towels to absorb any moisture, and store up to one week.
