Total Time 30 minutes
Course Main Course, Salad
Servings 2 wraps

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup kale, finely chopped & stemmed
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, finely chopped
  • 4-5 chicken breast tenders (appx. half pound)
  • 2 tablespoon pesto
  • 2/3 cup corn
  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 lemon, to squeeze
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (1 tbsp for sautéing chicken & 1 tbsp for salad)
  • 1/4 cup Caesar Salad dressing
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan, (I used both shredded and grated, grated for the salad mix and shredded for the wrap)
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 2 extra-large tortillas, (burrito sized, I am using flour)
  • Seasoning: garlic powder, salt, pepper, Lawry's, garlic salt

Instructions
 

  • Prep your veggies by removing the stems from your kale & finely chop your romaine and kale. Wash and pat dry or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture!
  • To make the chicken, cook your breast tenders in a skillet over medium heat - seasoning with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic powder, pepper, and Lawry's, Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side to brown, depending on thickness.
  • Top with pesto and let the chicken get crispy in the pesto. Make sure that your chicken is cooked all the way through until there's no pink.
  • Once cooked through, dice up the chicken.
  • Roast the corn by sautéing in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until you get a light char on the kernels.
  • Toast your breadcrumbs for 1-2 minutes in a skillet with garlic salt.
  • And to create your Caesar salad part, I like to elevate it a little beyond just the Caesar salad dressing. In a bowl, mix together your chopped kale and romaine, 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic salt, squeezed lemon, and pepper. Mix then add in your grated parmesan.
  • Now, time to assemble! Lay out your tortilla, add your salad, and feel free to include your diced avocado. Top with your diced chicken, bread crumbs, and shredded parmesan.
  • Wrap up your tortilla, and to really take things up a notch let's make it crispy! ;) Fry on your skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side till browned to your liking and enjoy!! xx
