Recipe preparation

Essential Ingredients

  • Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts: I usually use about 2-3 chicken breasts, but adjust based on your crowd size.

  • Romaine Lettuce: Fresh and crisp romaine is key for that satisfying crunch.
  • Caesar Dressing: Use store-bought or homemade, just make sure it’s creamy and zesty.

Let’s Make it together

Cook the Chicken: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper before cooking for about 6-8 minutes per side until fully cooked through.

Add the Buffalo Sauce: Once cooked, remove chicken from heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Toss the warm chicken in buffalo sauce until thoroughly coated.

Prepare the Wrap Ingredients: While the chicken rests, wash and chop romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Halve cherry tomatoes and slice green onions to add fresh toppings.

Assemble the Wraps: Lay out each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start layering with romaine lettuce, buffalo chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, tomatoes, and green onions.

Wrap it Up!: Fold in both sides of each tortilla tightly around the filling. Then roll from one end to another like you’re wrapping a cozy burrito.

Slice & Serve!: Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easy eating. Serve immediately while enjoying that satisfying crunch!
