Ground chicken 1 lb (93% lean for ideal juiciness)
Romaine lettuce 4 cups, chopped (substitute with chopped kale for extra crunch)
Whole wheat wraps 4 large (flour tortillas can be used as a substitute)
Parmesan cheese 1/2 cup, grated (use vegan parmesan for a dairy-free option)
Homemade Caesar dressing 1/4 cup (ensure version without anchovies)
Olive oil 1 tbsp (avocado oil can be used for a higher smoke point)

Add ground chicken, breaking apart with a spatula
Cook until no pink remains (internal temperature: 165°F)

Spread 1 tbsp Caesar dressing on each wrap
Layer 1 cup romaine, 1/4 cup parmesan, and 1/4 of the chicken on each wrap

Notes
Pat chicken dry before browning for better searing
Use parchment paper for a nonstick surface during assembly
