Ingredients
Scale
For the Chicken

- ½ teaspoon onion powder – Gives the chicken additional depth of flavor.
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning – Adds a blend of herbs that complements the Caesar flavors.
- ¼ teaspoon salt – Enhances the overall taste.
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper – Adds mild peppery flavor.
For the Wraps
- 4 large flour tortillas – Soft flour tortillas are flexible and easy to roll without breaking.
- 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce – Provides the classic crisp texture and fresh flavor of a Caesar salad.
- ½ cup Caesar dressing – Creates the creamy, tangy coating that brings all the ingredients together.
- ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese – Adds salty, nutty, and savory flavor.
- ½ cup croutons, lightly crushed, optional – Adds a crunchy texture inside the wrap.
