Description
A delightful twist on the classic Caesar salad featuring crispy breaded chicken wrapped with fresh romaine and creamy dressing in a soft tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 1 cup Flour (for coating)
- 2 Eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cups Romaine lettuce (chopped)
- 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
- 4 Large tortilla wraps
- Olive oil (for frying, as needed)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Set up a breading station: one plate with flour, another with beaten eggs, and a third with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Coat in flour, dip in eggs, and then cover with breadcrumb mixture.
- Fry the breaded chicken in hot oil for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Let the cooked chicken rest on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Prepare Caesar dressing if making homemade.
- Assemble wraps: in a tortilla, layer romaine, crispy chicken, Parmesan, and drizzle with dressing.
- Roll the tortilla tightly and serve with extra dressing if desired.
Notes
For optimal crispiness, avoid overcrowding the pan when frying the chicken. Store leftovers separately to maintain texture.
