Ingredients

Servings:
2
300g chicken breast, diced
8 large cos or iceberg lettuce leaves
40g parmesan, finely grated
2 tbsp light Caesar dressing
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
to taste salt, black pepper
optional anchovies, capers, or croutons

Method

1

Season diced chicken with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

2

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 6–8 minutes, tossing occasionally, until golden and cooked through (internal temp 74°C).

3

Set chicken aside to rest 2 minutes while you prep the wraps.

4

Lay lettuce leaves on a board. They serve as your wraps.

5

Add chicken pieces to each leaf, drizzle with Caesar dressing, and top with parmesan.

6

Add anchovies or capers if you enjoy them. Serve immediately — lettuce goes limp if left.

💡 Chef's Tips

Batch-cook the chicken in advance. Keeps refrigerated for 3 days, so prep on Sunday for weekday lunches.
