Why we love it
If you are looking for a delicious and healthy wrap recipe, this chicken caesar wrap recipe is the perfect mealtime treat.
With paprika-spiced chicken made in the air fryer, and then wrapped in spinach and creamy caesar dressing, these chicken caesar wraps are on everyone’s ideal lunch or dinner menu.
And they can be made easily in under 30 minutes. Just pop the chicken in the air fryer with a few spices, and then add it to the wrap. (You can also use leftovers from a rotisserie whole chicken if you prefer.)
I’ve used homemade caesar dressing, but you can easily use store bought as well. I’ve also used spinach in the wrap to add some vegetable nutrients, but you can also use kale, lettuce, etc., depending on what you have available. In addition, don’t hesitate to throw in some cherry tomatoes, if you wish, it all tastes good with this wrap!
Now, if you are not sure how to properly fold a wrap, I have included instructions below. Place the filling in the center and then fold the two edges towards the center so that filling holds inside.
Then roll the bottom part of the tortilla towards the center, finally bringing the top portion over it to close the wrap. You can then slice it in half to serve.
Cooking tips
- Be sure to use preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) before placing the caesar wrap inside.
- It will not be possible to use frozen spinach in this recipe, as the wrap will not hold.
