This Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap is a delicious creamy, crunchy, and crispy lunch. They’re a breeze to make from precooked chicken. An easy and creamy homemade Caesar dressing gives these spicy wraps so much flavor.
Homemade Caesar Dressing
The homemade Caesar dressing is my favorite part of this Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap. It’s spiced up with some Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. I love the smoky, spicy flavor that they have. The dressing also has a little fresh garlic flavor.
Anchovies are a key ingredient in Caesar dressing. They add tons of salty flavor, but will not make the dressing taste fishy.
This spicy wrap has so much crunch from chopped romaine lettuce and croutons. Using rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken makes these Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps so easy to prepare.
Tips For Making Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap
- They can be made ahead of time, but the croutons will lose some of their crunch.
- Make the Caesar dressing a day ahead of time for the best flavor. The flavors will blend and mellow a little.
- In a pinch, you could use a storebought dressing and add some chopped chipotle peppers to it.
- You can leave out the anchovies and add 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce if you wish.
