Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 teaspoon olive oil

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

4 large whole wheat tortillas

2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped

½ cup creamy Caesar dressing

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)

Freshly ground black pepper, for garnish

Optional: Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts and season generously with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Massage the marinade into the chicken for even coverage. Cover the bowl and let it marinate at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to enhance the flavor.

    Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or griddle pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the marinated chicken breasts onto the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, achieving nice grill marks. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute before slicing thinly.

      Prepare the Wraps: While the chicken is resting, lay the whole wheat tortillas flat on a clean working surface. In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, creamy Caesar dressing, and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss gently but thoroughly to ensure each leaf is coated with the dressing.

        Assemble the Wraps: On each tortilla, start by layering a generous portion of the Caesar salad mixture. Follow this with slices of the grilled chicken. For those who desire a burst of color and flavor, sprinkle in the halved cherry tomatoes.

          Wrap It Up: To fold each wrap, first tuck the sides of the tortilla inward. Then, from the bottom, roll it up tightly while ensuring the filling is secured inside. You can hold it in place with a toothpick or wrap it in parchment paper for easier handling.

            Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for a beautiful presentation. Serve with additional Caesar dressing on the side for dipping. For an extra pop of flavor, sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over the wraps for a zesty finish.
