Chicken Caesar Smash Wraps
the yummiest Chicken Caesar Smash Wraps
Chicken Caesar smash wraps are a fast, high-impact meal that turn a handful of familiar ingredients into something genuinely satisfying. Crispy ground chicken cooked directly onto a tortilla creates a sturdy, flavorful base that holds up to fresh Caesar salad without falling apart. The result is a wrap that feels indulgent but still practical enough for everyday cooking.
This recipe is built for efficiency. One pan, minimal prep, and ingredients that are easy to keep on hand. It is the kind of meal that works just as well for a quick lunch as it does for a no-stress dinner.
A Smarter Way to Do Chicken Caesar
Chicken Caesar is a classic for a reason, but it can easily feel repetitive. Turning it into a smash wrap adds contrast and structure. Warm, crispy chicken paired with cool romaine and creamy dressing keeps each bite balanced instead of one-note.
Using sourdough tortillas adds even more depth. The slight tang from the tortilla offsets the richness of the Caesar dressing and parmesan, making the wrap feel complete rather than overly rich. This also creates a natural opportunity to link to your discard tortilla recipe for readers who want to take the meal one step further.
Perfect for Busy Weeknights
This recipe is flexible by design. You can cook the smash tortillas ahead of time and store them in the fridge, then assemble with fresh salad just before serving. This keeps everything crisp and makes the wraps ideal for meal prep or quick assembly during the week.
They also scale easily. Whether you are cooking for one or feeding a group, the method stays the same and the results are consistent. That reliability is what makes this recipe worth keeping.
A Wrap Worth Repeating
Chicken Caesar smash wraps are simple without being boring. They use familiar ingredients in a smarter way, deliver strong texture and flavor, and fit easily into everyday cooking. Whether you make them with homemade sourdough tortillas or store-bought ones, this is the kind of recipe that solves dinner without overcomplicating it.
Chicken Caesar Smash Wraps
Ingredients
- 8 Sourdough Tortillas
- 1 lb Ground Chicken
- 1 Head of Romaine Lettuce
- Caesar Dressing (to taste)
- 1/4 cup Fresh Grated Parmesan
- Salt/Pepper (to taste)
- Garlic Powder (to taste)
- Italian Seasoning (to taste)
Instructions
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Gently coat the pan in olive or avocado oil.
- Separate the ground chicken into 8 equal pieces. Place one section of the ground chicken onto a tortilla and spread it thinly over the entire tortilla with a fork. Gently season with salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
- Place the tortilla onto the hot pan, chicken side down. Allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes. The chicken should be spread thinly enough that it will cook quickly. The chicken will be crispy and golden brown when fully cooked.
- Meanwhile, chop the lettuce and toss it with caesar dressing, fresh parmesan, salt, and pepper.
- Top your chicken smash tortillas with the caesar salad and garnish with extra freshly grated parmesan.
So delish! They were so easy and quick to make, and my whole family loved them! I made them in a skillet, but next time we’re going to make them on my husband’s Blackstone so we can cook them all at once!
Thank you for such a yummy, simple, yet healthy, recipe! 🥰
