For the Wraps
- After washed and drying your lettuce you’ll want to shred it and place into a mixing bowl.
- After smoking your chicken, shred the breast and top the lettuce with it in the mixing bowl.
- Continue to top lettuce with croutons, parmesan cheese, dressing and smoked garlic jalapeno blend. Mix ingredients well so each ingredient is distributed equally throughout the lettuce.
- On a skillet or griddle pan heat tortilla just enough to allow it to roll and fold well.
- Move tortilla to a plate and scoop about a 1 cups worth of Caesar salad mix into center of tortilla. – Fold and roll like a burrito.
- Using the same skillet/griddle you used for tortilla, on medium heat grill the wrap seam side down first. For best results use a bacon pressed or grill press for best and most desired crispiness.
