Easy Chicken Caesar Wrap!



Here is a super easy, super quick, and super yummy dinner for one (or more if your friends get jealous)! 
Total time it took me to prepare this meal: 20 minutes or less..No joke!

Here's what you need:


- Thin Sliced Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
(It doesn't HAVE to be thin sliced, but it's much easier to cook)
- Romaine Lettuce
- Lite Caesar Dressing
- Shredded Parmesan Cheese
- Tortillas
- Olive Oil



I warmed up my non-stick skillet for about 5 minutes, and then added olive oil. I do not have any specific measurements for really anything that I cook, so I just "eye-ball" it. You only need enough to cook one piece of chicken, so definitely don't go overboard. A little bit is plenty! I let the olive oil warm up for about the same amount of time. 


Next, I threw a slice of chicken over in the skillet, and let it sizzle away! It doesn't take much to cook through these thinly sliced pieces, so make sure you keep an eye on them. I would say I let each side cook for about 3 - 4 minutes.
( To add a little bit of flavor, I threw some salt and pepper on the chicken as I cooked it. )


Once the chicken was done, I cut it up into thin slices/pieces. 


Next, I threw the chicken pieces, lettuce, parmesan and caesar dressing into a large freezer bag. I shook it all up, adding in more dressing as I saw fit! 

And as hilarious as this is going to sound, I got so excited about trying it out that I scooped it out onto a tortilla, wrapped it up and started chowing down before I realized I had forgotten to take a picture! But I think you get the idea...


The beauty part about this meal is that it can be cooked for one person. I have noticed that this issue becomes a problem being in college. I want to eat yummy food, but I do not want to make a large meal when it is only me eating it! I only used one slice of chicken out of the package, so I put the rest of the slices into those large freezer bags and threw them into the freezer to keep for the rest of the week! 


It was super easy, super cheap, and pretty scrumptious if I do say so myself!
