The Prelude: A Bit of History

Before we dive into the culinary how-to, let’s pay homage to the origins of this remarkable dish. The Caesar salad, named after its creator Caesar Cardini, has danced across dinner tables since the 1920s. Fast forward to today, and we’ve wrapped up all that delectable history into a handheld feast fit for the modern gourmand.

The Ensemble of Ingredients

Now, let’s meet the stars of our show! Below, you’ll find the cast of characters that make up our Chicken Caesar Wrap. Each one plays a pivotal role in creating a masterpiece of taste and texture.

Ingredient List

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 2 cups of chopped romaine lettuce
• 1/2 cup of shredded parmesan cheese
• Caesar dressing, homemade or store-bought
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

The Preparation: Seasoning the Star

Now that we’ve gathered our ingredients, it’s time to season our leading lady, the chicken. First, pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Then, with a sprinkle of magic—also known as garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper—massage the seasonings into the chicken. Finally, drizzle the olive oil over the seasoned chicken to ensure it’s dressed for success.

The Performance: Bringing It All Together

Hold your applause, as we haven’t brought down the house just yet! Here’s how we turn these separate elements into a show-stopping Chicken Caesar Wrap.

Instructions

1. Heat a grill pan over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it’s fully cooked and boasts a golden-brown exterior worthy of a standing ovation. Allow the chicken to rest before slicing it into thin strips.
2. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start by laying a bed of crisp romaine lettuce across the center of the tortilla, like a verdant stage ready for its performers.
3. Shower the lettuce with a generous sprinkle of parmesan, like confetti at the grand finale.
4. Arrange the chicken strips atop the lettuce and cheese, ensuring every bite will have a piece of the limelight.
5. Drizzle your Caesar dressing over the chicken, as a director cues the spotlight.
6. Now, for the grand wrap-up! Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly, enveloping the ingredients in a warm embrace.
7. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, and then take a bow. You’ve just crafted a culinary masterpiece!
