Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into strips
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons Nature’s Seasoning (seasoned salt)
  • ¼ cup light Caesar dressing
  • ¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup croutons
  • 1 head of romaine lettuce
  • 4 8 inch tortillas

Method
 

  1. In a medium shallow mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch and seasoning.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and combined.
  3. Press each chicken strip into the flour mixture, then through the whisked egg and then back through the flour mixture. There should be an even coating of each layer.
  4. Spray the air fryer basket with a nonstick cooking spray. Place the chicken strips in the fryer basket, leaving space in between each. Depending on the size of your air fryer basket, you may need to work in batches. Cook at 380 ℉ for 8 minutes, flip and cook for three more minutes until golden brown.
  5. Chop the crisp lettuce and give it a thorough wash. Then, add it to a large mixing bowl along with the dressing, cheese and croutons. Gently toss the salad to combine.
  6. Add a 1/2 cup of Caesar salad to the bottom half of the tortilla and 3 to 4 crispy chicken strips. Fold the bottom of the tortilla over the salad. Then, make two vertical folds on both sides of the bottom fold. Now it's time to start rolling. Use the tips of your fingers to tuck any loose salad in and the sides as you roll the tortilla upwards in a tight burrito.

Notes

  • After arranging the battered chicken strips in a single layer in the air fryer, spray the tops generously with cooking spray to get them extra crispy.
  • Not all air fryer brands cook the same, so keep an eye on your chicken strips.
  • The internal temperature of the chicken should be at least 165 °F. Take the temperature from the thickest part of a piece of chicken. Continue to cook until the chicken reaches temperature.
  • Storing: Wrap each caesar wrap tightly in aluminum foil and store in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. They are perfect for a packed mid-day meal as they taste great served cold and at room temperature. Freezing is not recommended.
