Ingredients
  

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 whole wheat tortillas

2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)

1/4 cup croutons (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Chicken: Begin by preheating your grill or a non-stick skillet over medium heat. While it heats up, rub the chicken breasts with the olive oil and season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Place the chicken on the grill or skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C). Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes, then slice it thinly against the grain.

    Prepare the Salad Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped Romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and grated Parmesan cheese. Drizzle the Caesar dressing over the salad components and gently toss everything together until all the ingredients are well coated in the dressing.

      Assemble the Wraps: Take a whole wheat tortilla and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the salad mixture into the center of the tortilla. Top it with a handful of the sliced grilled chicken. For added texture, feel free to sprinkle some croutons on top.

        Wrap It Up: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla to secure the filling, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to the top, creating a secure wrap. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and salad mixture.

          Serve: To present your wraps, slice each one in half diagonally and arrange them neatly on a platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color. If desired, serve with extra Caesar dressing on the side for dipping.
