Cook the chicken
Sear the seasoned chicken to a safe 165°F (74°C) and slice it, or use leftover/rotisserie chicken to skip this step entirely.
Dress the romaine
Toss the chopped romaine with Parmesan and Caesar dressing just before assembling so it stays crisp rather than wilting.
Roll tightly
Warm the tortillas so they're pliable, layer the filling down the center, and roll tightly, folding in the sides. Slice on the diagonal to serve.
Storage & Make-Ahead
Store the cooked chicken separately for up to 4 days and assemble wraps fresh. Assembled wraps are best eaten the same day.
