Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup Caesar dressing

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Optional: croutons for added crunch

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken:

    - In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

      - While the oil heats, season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic powder, cracked black pepper, and sea salt.

        - Carefully place the seasoned chicken breasts into the hot skillet, cooking them for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the juices run clear.

          - Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes to retain its juices.

            Slice the Chicken:

              - After the chicken has rested, use a sharp knife to slice it into thin, even strips for easy wrapping.

                Assemble the Filling:

                  - In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, and sliced chicken.

                    - Drizzle the Caesar dressing over the mixture and gently toss everything together, ensuring the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.

                      Prepare the Wraps:

                        - To make the tortillas pliable, microwave them for about 10 seconds or warm them in a pan over low heat.

                          - Place one tortilla flat on a clean surface, then spoon a generous amount of the chicken and salad mixture into the center of the tortilla.

                            - If you're using croutons, sprinkle them on top for an extra layer of crunch.

                              Wrap It Up:

                                - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll the bottom edge upwards, tightly enclosing the filling within the wrap.

                                  - Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling until all are assembled.

                                    Serve:

                                      - Using a sharp knife, slice each wrap in half diagonally for a visually appealing presentation. Serve immediately with extra Caesar dressing in small bowls on the side for dipping, if desired.
