Chicken Caesar Lettuce Wraps

Cultural Context

Originating in Mexico and popularized in the United States, Caesar salad has become a staple in American cuisine. The dish celebrates the combination of crisp greens, creamy dressing, and savory toppings. Today, variations like lettuce wraps offer a lighter, gluten-free alternative that maintains the classic flavors while appealing to modern dietary preferences.

4 servings
Servings4
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1" cubes
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons Caesar dressing
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Juice of 1 lemon, divided
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Half of a French baguette, cut into 1" cubes
1 pint cherry tomatoes
6 romaine lettuce leaves, washed and dried
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1

In a medium bowl, toss chicken with dressing, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and half of lemon juice. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes.

2

Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.

3

Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

4

Divide and thread chicken onto 6 skewers. In a medium bowl, toss bread with 2 tablespoons olive oil to coat. Alternating with tomatoes, thread the bread and tomatoes onto remaining skewers.

Brush grill pan with olive oil. Add the chicken skewers and grill until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove and set aside. Grill the bread and tomato skewers until charred and tomatoes begin to burst, about 5 minutes.

Top romaine leaves with chicken, croutons and tomatoes. Drizzle with more dressing, sprinkle with parmesan and squeeze lemon on top of each serving.
