Ingredients

– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
Making Summer Grilled Chicken Caesar Wraps involves simple steps that will guide you from start to finish:
1. Marinate the Chicken (optional): In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
2. Grill the Chicken: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and juices run clear. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
3. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. This helps retain moisture.
4. Slice the Chicken: After resting, slice the grilled chicken into thin strips.
5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat on a surface. Divide the chopped romaine lettuce among the wraps, followed by sliced chicken, Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and cherry tomatoes if you’re using them.
6. Roll the Wraps: Tuck in the sides and roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, securing it well.
7. Slice and Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap in foil for later.
