Ingredients
  

For the Caesar Dressing

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Chicken

  • 4 chicken cutlets
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup parmesan grated
  • 1 egg whisked
  • Neutral oil for frying (I like avocado oil)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wraps

  • 4 large tortillas
  • 2 cups Romaine lettuce washed and chopped
  • 2 Roma tomatoes thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated, optional

Instructions
 

  • Begin by seasoning your chicken cutlets on both sides.
  • Set up a dredging station by whisking an egg in one bowl then adding the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in another.
  • Run your chicken through the eggs, then the panko mixture, pressing to adhere the breadcrumbs to the chicken.
  • Heat a skillet with oil over medium-high heat.
  • Once glistening, add in chicken and cook on both sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
  • Once cooked, remove from heat and place on a paper towel lined plate.
  • After the chicken has rested, cut into strips.
  • In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, parmesan, lemon juice, dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  • Reserve about 1/4 cup of the Caesar dressing then add the chopped romaine to the remaining dressing and toss to coat.
  • To assemble the wrap, lay a tortilla on a clean work surface then top with Caesar coated romaine followed by the sliced chicken, parmesan cheese if using, and tomato slices.
  • Fold the bottom of the tortilla up followed by the sides of the tortilla, covering the filling and enjoy!
