Instructions
Prepare the Tortillas
- Make homemade tortillas using freshly milled flour (see blog for link), or warm store-bought ones.
- Keep them covered with a clean towel to stay soft and pliable.
Make the Mayo Base
- In a tall jar, add the egg, oil, mustard, and vinegar.
- Blend with an immersion blender until thickened into creamy mayo.
- Do not salt—seasoning will come in with the Caesar ingredients.
Make the Caesar Dressing
- Add Worcestershire sauce, parmesan, anchovy paste, garlic, lemon juice, and pepper to the mayo.
- Whisk until smooth and well combined.
- Taste and adjust, layering ingredients until balanced.
Cook the Chicken
- Pound thin-sliced chicken breasts to even thickness.
- Season both sides with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Heat avocado oil in a Caraway stainless steel pan over medium-high heat.
- Sear chicken without flipping until it naturally releases and is well browned, then cook the other side until golden and cooked through.
- Let rest, then slice into strips.
Assemble the Wraps
- Lay out a tortilla.
- Add chopped romaine, sliced chicken, and a spoonful of Caesar dressing.
- Sprinkle with extra parmesan if desired.
- Fold, wrap, and enjoy!
