Ingredients
  

For the Marinade
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 500 g chicken breast Cut into tender pieces
For the Wraps
  • 4 large tortilla wraps
  • 4 cup romaine lettuce (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1/2 cup croutons (crushed)
  • 1 tablespoon butter For crisping the wraps

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Whisk to create your marinade.
  2. Add the chicken breast to the marinade and coat well. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Place chicken on the grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 75°C. Then, remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Slice the grilled chicken into thin strips.
Assembly
  1. In a large bowl, toss chopped romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing.
  2. Lay a tortilla flat and layer with dressed lettuce, sliced chicken, grated Parmesan, and crushed croutons.
  3. Roll the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to enclose the filling.
Crisping
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat, melt butter, and place the wrap seam-side down. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes each side until golden and crispy.
  2. Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately.

Notes

These wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can last in the fridge for up to 3 days if stored in an airtight container. Keep dressing and wraps separate until ready to eat. Reheat in a skillet for a few minutes to regain crispiness. Use fresh herbs if possible for a brighter flavor!
