Prep Time20 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time4 hours 35 minutes
Servings: 5 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (Lemon Basil Chicken or other)
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 3 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 2/3 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup garlic herb croutons
  • 1/2 cup Caesar salad dressing
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 5 burrito-size (10–12 inch) flour tortillas

Instructions

  • If using the Lemon Basil Chicken, prepare it according to its recipe and let rest 10 minutes, then chop or shred; otherwise use 2 cups shredded cooked chicken.
  • In a large bowl combine the shredded chicken, chopped cooked bacon, chopped romaine, halved cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan, croutons, Caesar dressing, garlic powder, and black pepper; toss until evenly coated.
  • Lay a tortilla flat and place about one-fifth of the filling in a line across the bottom third of the tortilla.
  • Fold the tortilla edges in toward the filling, fold the bottom up over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom to form a burrito-style wrap; place seam side down.
  • Optional—heat a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and toast the wraps seam side down in batches until each side is golden, rotating as needed.

Equipment

  • Large Bowl
  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • skillet (cast-iron or nonstick)

Notes

  • To assemble 4–6 hours ahead, use less dressing and serve extra on the side.
  • Toast the wraps for best texture.
  • Wrap individually in plastic wrap for transport.
  • Store prepared ingredients separately to assemble quickly later.
  • Ingredients (except lettuce and tortillas) will keep refrigerated up to 5 days.
  • Assembled wraps may soften in the refrigerator within 3 days.
