Pat the chicken breasts dry and drizzle with olive oil. Season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and crushed croutons. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
Warm each tortilla for about 15 seconds in the microwave or briefly in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.
Lay a tortilla flat and add a generous portion of sliced chicken down the center. Top with the Caesar salad mixture.
Fold in both sides of the tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap.
Place the wrap seam-side down in a warm skillet and toast for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown and lightly crispy.
Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately with lemon wedges and extra Parmesan if desired.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken is an excellent shortcut for busy days.
- Don't overdress the salad or the wrap can become soggy.
- Warm tortillas before rolling to prevent cracking.
- Freshly grated Parmesan provides the best flavor.
- Toasting the wrap adds a delicious crispy exterior and helps seal it closed.
- If meal prepping, store the salad separately and assemble just before eating for the freshest texture.
