Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approximately 1 pound)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
Salad
- 3 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Wraps
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Cook the Chicken: Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Place them in the hot skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown on the outside and cooked through internally.
- Add Buffalo Sauce: Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes to retain its juices. After resting, toss the chicken breasts in the buffalo sauce until they are evenly coated and flavorful.
- Prepare Vegetables: Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes to add a fresh and juicy element to the wraps.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay each flour tortilla flat and spread a generous amount of Caesar dressing evenly over each tortilla. Next, layer the buffalo chicken, chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded Parmesan cheese on top.
- Roll Up: Carefully and tightly roll each tortilla around the fillings, ensuring all ingredients are securely enclosed to prevent any spillage during eating.
- Slice and Serve: Cut each tightly rolled wrap diagonally in half for an appealing presentation. Serve immediately with extra buffalo sauce or Caesar dressing on the side if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute cooked rotisserie chicken to save time.
- Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
- Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce according to your preferred spice level.
- These wraps can be prepared ahead and refrigerated; serve chilled or warm up slightly before eating.
- Using freshly grated Parmesan cheese enhances the flavor compared to pre-shredded varieties.
