Why I Love This Recipe
I am obsessed with chicken Caesar wraps. I order them every time a restaurant has it on the menu, and I could literally eat them every day. I've been craving chicken Caesar wraps lately but haven't been in the cooking mood, so I decided to use a trick my grandma taught me. When she wanted something with chicken but didn't feel like making it, she'd pick up a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store.
So the other day, I grabbed a rotisserie chicken, whipped up a homemade Caesar dressing, and put these chicken wraps together. Using rotisserie chicken makes this version incredibly fast without losing flavor. The homemade Caesar dressing takes it to the next level—better than anything store-bought! Plus, toasting the wrap gives it a crispy texture that makes it even more irresistible. That's why I can't stop making this recipe!!
Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 1 cup rotisserie chicken, sliced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon sweet paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Caesar Dressing:
- ¼ cup low-fat mayonnaise
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon mustard

How to Make Rotisserie Chicken Caesar Wraps
Step 1: Season and Warm the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add rotisserie chicken, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.
Step 2: Make the Caesar Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, garlic, Parmesan, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Spread a layer of Caesar dressing over each tortilla. Add chicken, romaine lettuce, and bacon bits. Wrap tightly like a burrito.
Step 4: Toast the Wraps
Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Warm each wrap for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
Step 5: Slice and Serve
Let the wraps cool slightly, then slice in half and serve with extra Caesar dressing or a side salad.
My Expert Tips
- Make The Wraps Extra Crispy: Brush the outside of the wrap with a little olive oil or add butter to the skillet before toasting.
- Make the Dressing Healthier: Use Greek yogurt instead of mayo for a lighter version of Caesar dressing.
- Spice It Up: Add crushed red pepper flakes or some hot sauce for a little heat.
- Use Different Wraps: Try using a spinach or whole wheat tortilla for a different flavor.
- Make It a Meal: Serve with sweet potato fries, a side salad, or my homemade Cava pita chips.
FAQs About This Chicken Caesar Wrap Recipe
Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
Yes! Wrap them tightly in foil and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Toast before serving for the best texture.
How do you store chicken caesar wraps?
Keep the components separate and assemble fresh for the best taste. The Caesar dressing lasts 3-4 days in the fridge, and the chicken will last up to 3 days depending on when you bought it.
What’s the best tortilla for chicken wraps?
Large flour tortillas work best because they’re pliable and hold up well when toasted. I like using plain white flour tortillas for this recipe.
