Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 2 large chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs) Trimmed and sliced into thin cutlets
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 large eggs Beaten
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs For breading
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese For breading
  • 1/4 cup neutral oil Such as vegetable, smooth olive oil, or avocado oil for frying
For the Salad
  • 1 large head romaine lettuce Chopped into small pieces
  • 1 cup croutons
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing Store-bought or homemade
For Assembly
  • 4 extra-large burrito-sized wraps

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Trim the chicken breasts, then slice them into thin cutlets.
  2. Create a breading station: in one bowl, mix flour with salt and pepper; in another, beat the eggs; and in the third bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs with grated parmesan.
Cooking Chicken
  1. Dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour, dip it into the egg, and then coat it with the panko mixture.
  2. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the breaded chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
Salad Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, mix the chopped romaine, croutons, shredded parmesan, and Caesar dressing, tossing gently to combine.
Assembly
  1. On each wrap, lay down some of the salad mixture, top with a piece of chicken, and roll tightly.
  2. Cut the wraps in half and serve with fresh fruit or potato chips for a delightful crunch.

Notes

Best paired with sweet potato fries, a light pasta salad, or a fresh fruit platter. Add extra parmesan and a wedge of lemon for added flavor.
