- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts - 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning - 1 tablespoon olive oil - Salt and pepper to taste - 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat) - 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped - 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved - 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese - 1/2 cup Caesar dressing - Optional: sliced green onions for garnish You can swap chicken for shrimp or tofu for a twist. Use any seasoning you like. If you want a lighter wrap, try lettuce leaves instead of tortillas. For the cheese, feta or cheddar works well too. Don't have cherry tomatoes? Dice regular tomatoes or use bell peppers instead. Caesar dressing can be replaced with ranch or Greek yogurt for a change. Each wrap has about 450 calories. It provides protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Chicken gives you lean protein, while the lettuce adds fiber. Parmesan cheese brings calcium. The dressing adds taste but can also add calories. If you want to cut calories, use less dressing or a lighter version. Enjoying this meal gives you a tasty way to fuel your day! First, gather your ingredients. You need boneless, skinless chicken breasts and Cajun seasoning. You will also need olive oil, salt, pepper, tortillas, romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and Caesar dressing. If you want, grab some green onions for garnish. Next, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. This step is key for getting that nice char on the chicken. While it heats, rub the chicken with olive oil. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper on both sides. Make sure each piece is well-coated for full flavor. Once your grill is hot, place the chicken on it. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side. You want the chicken to cook until it reaches 165°F (75°C). This ensures it's safe to eat. When done, take the chicken off the grill and let it rest. Resting helps keep the juices inside. After a few minutes, slice the chicken into strips. Now it’s time to put everything together. In a large bowl, mix the chopped romaine, halved cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan, and Caesar dressing. Toss gently to coat everything. This mixture will be the star of your wrap. Lay out your tortillas flat. Divide the Caesar salad mix among them, placing it in the center. Next, add the sliced chicken strips on top. If you like, sprinkle sliced green onions for extra flavor. To wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla. Then, roll it tightly from the bottom up. This keeps all the tasty filling inside. Finally, slice each wrap in half diagonally for easy eating. Enjoy your flavorful and simple meal! To cook the chicken just right, start by preheating your grill. I like to use medium-high heat. This helps to get a nice char on the outside. Rub the chicken with olive oil, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Make sure it is evenly coated. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 165°F (75°C). This ensures juicy chicken. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. This keeps the juices inside. When it comes to wrapping, choose large tortillas. Flour or whole wheat works well. Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place the salad mixture in the center. Don’t overfill, or it may spill out. Add the chicken strips on top. To wrap, fold the sides in first. Then roll it tightly from the bottom up. This helps keep everything inside. For a clean cut, slice the wraps diagonally. For serving, arrange the wraps on a platter. Add extra cherry tomato halves for color. You can include a small bowl of Caesar dressing for dipping. This adds a fun touch. Garnish with sliced green onions for freshness. These wraps make a great meal for any occasion. Enjoy them for lunch or dinner! {{image_2}} You can switch the chicken for other proteins. Try shrimp for a tasty twist. Just season and grill them like the chicken. You can also use turkey for a leaner option. Cook it the same way, and it will still taste great. If you want a meatless wrap, use grilled veggies instead. Bell peppers, zucchini, and eggplant work well. Just toss them in olive oil and Cajun spices and grill. You can also add chickpeas for a protein boost. They add a nice texture and flavor. While Caesar dressing is classic, feel free to mix it up. Ranch dressing is a popular choice. It offers a creamy taste that many love. You could also use a spicy chipotle dressing for a kick. Try a yogurt-based dressing for a lighter option. Each dressing brings a new flavor to your wraps. To store leftovers, first let the wraps cool. Place them in an airtight container. You can keep them in the fridge for up to three days. If you have extra salad mix, store it separately to keep it fresh. You can freeze these wraps, but it’s best to freeze the chicken and salad mix separately. Wrap the chicken tightly in plastic wrap and place it in a freezer bag. The salad mix should go in a separate container. They can last in the freezer for up to three months. To reheat, thaw the chicken in the fridge overnight. You can then reheat it in a pan over low heat. Warm the tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave. This keeps them soft and easy to fold. Enjoy your wrap warm and fresh! You can use ranch or Greek yogurt dressing. Both add a creamy touch. A simple vinaigrette also works well. Mix olive oil, vinegar, and herbs for a fresh taste. Experimenting with these dressings can give you a fun twist on the wrap. Yes, you can prep many parts ahead. Grill the chicken and store it in the fridge. You can also chop the veggies and mix the dressing. Just assemble the wraps when you are ready to eat. This can save you time on busy days. To keep chicken juicy, don't overcook it. Grill until it reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest after grilling. This helps the juices stay inside. Also, marinating the chicken for a few hours can add flavor and moisture.
