Description
Discover a mouthwatering twist on a Caesar salad and chicken sandwich in these Crispy Chicken Caesar Wraps with Buttermilk & Parmesan Flavor. Golden buttermilk-marinated chicken is coated in a Parmesan-infused breadcrumb crust, fried or baked until crisp, then wrapped with crunchy romaine lettuce and creamy Caesar dressing in a warm tortilla. Perfect for a quick lunch, family dinner, or picnic, these portable wraps deliver restaurant-quality flavor with minimal effort. Customize with avocado, tomato, or bacon, and choose air-frying or grilling for a lighter option.
Ingredients
Instructions
1. In a bowl combine buttermilk, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and marinate for 15–30 minutes in the refrigerator.
2. In a shallow dish mix breadcrumbs, flour, and grated Parmesan.
3. Remove chicken from marinade, let excess drip off, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
4. For pan-frying: heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook chicken 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
5. For baking: preheat oven to 400°F. Place breaded chicken on a parchment-lined tray, spray with oil, and bake 18–22 minutes, flipping halfway.
6. Whisk mayonnaise (or yogurt), Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and Parmesan to make Caesar dressing.
7. Warm tortillas. Spread dressing on each, top with lettuce, sliced chicken, and extra Parmesan. Add optional avocado or tomato.
8. Fold sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up. Slice in half and serve immediately.
