Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Dressing

  • 2–3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 3–4 garlic cloves, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup water or chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup creamy Caesar dressing
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Vegetables and Wrap

  • 1 head romaine lettuce, washed and dried
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup croutons (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Slow-Cooked Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a slow cooker along with minced garlic, salt, pepper, and a splash of water or chicken broth. Cook on low for 6-8 hours until the chicken is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
  2. Shred and Season: Remove the cooked chicken, shred finely using two forks, then toss it with Caesar dressing and grated Parmesan cheese to evenly distribute flavor.
  3. Prepare the Wrap Ingredients: Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly. Crumble croutons if desired for better layering. Warm the flour tortillas gently to make them soft and pliable.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat, layer with romaine lettuce first, add a generous scoop of the Caesar chicken mixture, sprinkle croutons over the top, and drizzle a little extra dressing if preferred. Fold the sides and roll tightly to enclose the filling.
  5. Serve or Store: Serve immediately for optimal texture and warmth, or wrap individually in foil or parchment paper for easy meals on the go.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic to enhance the aroma and flavor of the slow-cooked chicken.
  • Avoid adding too much dressing before rolling to prevent soggy wraps; mix the dressing carefully with the chicken.
  • Slightly warm the tortillas to prevent tearing and make rolling easier.
  • Shred chicken finely with two forks for better flavor distribution.
  • Make your own croutons by toasting bread cubes with olive oil and herbs for extra crunch and flavor.
