Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps Recipe

I’m a big fan of a chicken caesar salad, and these wraps have all the best parts–and then some! Sometimes a salad just feels a little too boring, but this recipe is anything but. In addition to the lettuce, Caesar dressing, and chicken, I also stuffed some cucumbers into the wrap for a burst of freshness. Yes, I even managed to add croutons, because that’s the best part of any salad, right?

I like to make grilled chicken breast for this recipe, but it’s also a good way to use shredded chicken if you have some in your fridge. This highly-portable lunch idea is perfect if you’re on the go, and it’s easy to meal prep too.

How to Store

Store leftover chicken Caesar salad wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy cold. If you’re meal prepping and worried about the tortillas getting soggy, cook and store the chicken in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Then store the rest of the components separately and assemble fresh–they come together super fast!

Notes and Tips

Grill chicken fresh for these wraps, or use leftovers. You can really cook the chicken any way you like first!
I like to grill the romaine leaves too to give the wraps an extra crunch!

How To Make Chicken Caesar Wraps Step by Step

Grill the Chicken: Brush the grates of a grill or an indoor grill pan with 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and set over medium heat. Add 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast and grill for 10 minutes on each side until cooked through to 165°F. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice into 10 thin strips. Set aside.

Grill the Lettuce: Add 2 romaine lettuce hearts broken into leaves in the same grill pan and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until slightly charred. Then set aside.

Fill the Wraps: Open 10 mini flour tortillas, spread with ⅓ cup of Caesar salad dressing, add 2 charred lettuce leaves, a slice of the chicken, 2 croutons, 2-3 cucumber sticks, and sprinkle some Parmesan, salt, and pepper.

Fold the Wraps: Wrap like a burrito, then cut in half. You can use a toothpick to keep the shape intact. Dip it in some more Caesar salad dressing, and enjoy!
