Description

This Chicken Caesar Wrap recipe is exactly what you need for quick lunch or light dinner! It’s made with tender seasoned chicken, packed with veggies and avocado, and has the creamiest homemade caesar dressing to pull everything together. This wrap has quickly become one of my favorite easy lunches to meal prep and I know you’ll love it, too!


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Chicken

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast (split in half lengthwise)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Wrap

  • 1 cup chopped tuscan/lacinato kale
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/3 cup diced roasted red peppers
  • 1/3 cup chopped grilled artichoke hearts
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup creamy caesar dressing, plus more if desired
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 large burrito-sized (10-inch) tortillas

Instructions

  1. Make the Chicken: Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the olive oil and then add the chicken breast. Cook for 5 minutes per side until the chicken is golden brown and internal temperature is 165 degrees. Let the chicken rest and cool for 10 minutes before dicing.
  2. Make the Salad: Add the diced chicken breast and the remaining wrap ingredients, except the tortillas, to a large mixing bowl. Toss until well combined.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Warm the tortillas on a griddle/skillet/open gas flame or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Divide the salad mixture evenly between all four of the tortillas. Fold the sides of each tortilla toward the center and then roll up tightly like a burrito. Slice on a diagonal and serve!

Notes

Store any leftover cooked chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. 

Meal Prep Tips

  • Prep the chicken – prep and season the chicken up to two days in advance to save some time. You can also prep and season a big batch of chicken breasts in advance, and freeze until you’re ready to cook. 
  • Make the dressing – combine all the ingredients for the homemade Caesar dressing, and keep it stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 to 7 days. 
  • Prep the veggies – you can slice and prep your veggies and any other filling ingredients so that they’re ready to use when you make your wraps. Just keep them stored in separate airtight containers in the fridge.
