Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts, grilled and sliced

4 large whole wheat wraps or tortillas

2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped

1/2 cup Caesar dressing

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup croutons, crushed

Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Olive oil, for grilling

Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Begin by heating your grill to medium-high. While it heats, brush the chicken breasts generously with olive oil. Season both sides with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to enhance the flavor.

    Grill the Chicken: Once the grill is ready, place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grates. Grill them for approximately 6-7 minutes per side, until they achieve a golden brown color and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). After grilling, remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.

      Prepare the Wraps: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped Romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons. Gently toss the mixture until the lettuce is well coated in the dressing, ensuring every piece is flavorful.

        Assemble the Wraps: Take a whole wheat wrap and lay it flat on a clean surface or plate. Spoon a generous portion of the Caesar salad mixture into the center of the wrap. Next, layer the sliced grilled chicken on top of the salad.

          Wrap It Up: Start by folding the sides of the wrap inward to contain the filling, then roll from the bottom up to enclose everything snugly. Make sure the filling is packed tightly to avoid spills.

            Grill the Wraps: Lightly brush the exterior of each wrap with olive oil to achieve a golden crust during grilling. Place the wraps on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they are crisp and browned.

              Serve and Enjoy: Once grilled, remove the wraps from the grill and let them cool slightly. Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easy eating. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for that extra zesty kick that complements the rich flavors of the Caesar dressing.
