Easiest Chicken Caesar Wraps for Busy Families-15 Minutes (or less)!

Who doesn’t love a good wrap? Look, if Ina were here, she’d tell me to go get my heirloom lettuce from my garden. But since the yard is covered in snow, store-bought is fine. (If you don’t get the reference…you’re too young. J.K., I still love you, but Google it.)

I Meme of the Chef Ina Garten that says "If you don't have time to travel to Madagascar and pick your own vanilla beans, Store bought is fine"

This recipe is so simple and takes like 5 minutes to throw together. (Cooking the chicken is literally the longest part.) I’ll give you the short version and the long version (aka, the lazy way and the slightly less lazy way).

The Laziest *Delish* Chicken Caesar Wrap

Ingredients:

  • 1 pre-bagged Caesar Salad Kit (I use Fresh Express)
  • Caesar Croutons (I eat these suckers right outta the bag)
  • Kens Light Creamy Caesar Dressing (you can use what’s in the kit if you like)
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Cucumber
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Sundried Tomato OR Spinich Wraps
  • Pre-cooked Chicken Tenders or Honey Chicken Breast Tenders

Instructions:

  1. Cook your chicken per package instructions (I use my air fryer).
  2. While your chicken cooks, slice your cherry tomatoes into quarters and your cucumbers into 1/4-inch rounds. (You can peel them if you like.)
  3. Put your salad kit greens into a bowl, but leave out the dressing.
  4. Grab a wrap and add a bed of lettuce to the middle.
  5. Add a sprinkle of your quartered tomatoes and cucumbers.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked and cool enough to handle, cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  7. Add the chicken to your wrap, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  8. Throw some croutons on that baby.
  9. Drizzle on your dressing (I don’t measure this) and wrap that sucker up!

Ta-da! That’s it! Literally so easy, but it tastes like you put the effort in.

Before the “Wrap Part”

Classic Chicken Caesar Wrap

Ingredients:

  • 1 head of Boston Lettuce OR Romaine Hearts
  • Caesar Croutons (I eat these suckers right outta the bag) but if you have a loaf of stale bread you can make your own
  • Kens Light Creamy Caesar Dressing
  • Kens Light Caesar Dressing (The NON Creamy)
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Cucumber
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Sundried Tomato OR Spinich Wraps
  • 1/2lb-1lb Raw Chicken Tenders (or Breasts cut into strips)

Instructions:

  1. Take your chicken tenders (or strips) and marinate them in the non-creamy Ken’s Caesar Dressing in the fridge for at least an hour (enough dressing to cover the chicken).
  2. Once your chicken has finished marinating, cook it on the stovetop in a pan, or if the weather is nice, grill it! Cook until no longer pink in the middle (165°F in the center).
  3. While your chicken cooks, slice your cherry tomatoes into quarters and your cucumbers into 1/4-inch rounds. (You can peel them if you like.) Wash and cut up your lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Grab a wrap and add a bed of lettuce to the middle.
  5. Add a sprinkle of your quartered tomatoes and cucumbers.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked and cool enough to handle, cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  7. Add the chicken to your wrap, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  8. Throw some croutons on that baby.
  9. Drizzle on your creamy dressing (I don’t measure this) and wrap that sucker up!

Honestly, this way takes a little longer, but the marinated chicken is SO good. Plus, it’s healthier because it’s not a processed breaded tendie. (Nothing against tendies.) I’m sure you’ll like this recipe either way you make it!
