Instructions
Preparation
- 1Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Rub the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
- 2Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breasts. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove chicken from skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Assembly
- 1Warm the tortillas slightly in a clean, dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-20 seconds per side, or microwave them for 15-20 seconds until pliable. This makes them easier to roll without cracking.
- 2Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread a generous amount of Caesar dressing in the center, leaving about an inch clear around the edges. Top with a quarter of the sliced chicken, then a quarter of the chopped romaine lettuce, and finally a quarter of the shaved Parmesan cheese.
- 3To roll the wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then starting from the bottom, tightly roll the tortilla upwards. Slice the wrap in half diagonally before serving.

Tips
- For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken in a blend of lemon juice, olive oil, and fresh herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Ensure tortillas are warm before wrapping; this prevents tearing and makes them more flexible for a neater, tighter roll.
- Add a few croutons inside the wrap just before serving for an extra crunch and authentic Caesar salad texture.
