Ingredients

For the Chicken:

• 4 large chicken breasts
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp sweet paprika
• Salt, to taste
• 20 cracks of black pepper
• 2 tsp (10 mL) olive oil

For the Bacon (optional but recommended):

• 300 g streaky bacon

For the Caesar Dressing:

• 180 g (¾ cup) low-fat mayonnaise
• 1 clove garlic, minced or microplaned
• 20 g Parmesan cheese, grated
• 6 anchovy fillets, chopped
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• Salt & 10 cracks black pepper

For the Wraps:

• 1 baby cos/romaine lettuce, washed and thinly sliced
• 5 large low-fat high-protein tortillas

Instructions

1. Prep the Chicken:
   • In a large bowl, coat chicken breasts with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
   • Heat olive oil in a high-rimmed pan over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 3–3½ minutes per side until golden.
   • Transfer to a 200 °C (390 °F) oven for 14 minutes.
2. Cook the Bacon:
   • Lay bacon on a parchment-lined tray (can overlap slightly). Bake in the oven alongside the chicken until crispy (~13–14 mins).
3. Make the Caesar Dressing:
   • In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, garlic, Parmesan, anchovies, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to assemble.
4. Prepare the Lettuce:
   • Thinly slice and wash the romaine/cos lettuce.
5. Slice & Tear Protein:
   • Let chicken rest for 5 minutes, then tear into bite-sized strips. Slice or tear bacon.
6. Assemble the Filling:
   • In a bowl, mix chicken, bacon, shredded lettuce, and ⅔ of the Caesar dressing. Adjust seasoning with black pepper.
7. Fill the Wraps:
   • Spread remaining dressing on each tortilla. Divide filling evenly among 5 wraps. Fold sides in and roll tightly.
8. Store & Serve:
   • Wrap individually in parchment paper or store in airtight containers. Refrigerate for up to 3–4 days. Best eaten cold — no microwave needed!

Tips:

• Want smaller wraps? Divide filling into 8 tortillas and recalculate macros.
• Skip bacon to reduce sodium and calories, or swap for turkey bacon.
