Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 lb Chicken Breast A lean protein base; substitute with turkey, tofu, or chickpeas.
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt Enhances chicken's natural flavors.
  • 1 tsp Cracked Black Pepper Freshly ground is best for flavor.
For the Salad

  • 4 cups Iceberg Lettuce Consider swapping for romaine or spinach.
  • 4 slices Bacon Strips Use turkey bacon for a lighter option.
  • 1/2 cup Store-bought Caesar Dressing Try homemade for a fresh spin.
  • 1/4 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese Use nutritional yeast as a dairy-free alternative.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil. Cook the bacon strips for 2-4 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove and cool before chopping.
  2. Season the chicken breast with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. Sear in the same skillet for about 4 minutes per side, then transfer to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped iceberg lettuce, sliced chicken, chopped bacon, Caesar dressing, and Parmesan cheese. Toss gently.
  4. Place the salad mixture on a tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll tightly to secure the filling.
  5. Toast the wrap seam-side down in a skillet with olive oil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown, then flip and toast the other side.
