# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, cooked chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and croutons. Toss thoroughly with tongs until ingredients are evenly coated. Adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, and add additional dressing if needed. Set aside.

Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Warm each flour tortilla for 15 to 30 seconds per side, just until pliable. Transfer warmed tortillas to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft. Alternatively, wrap tortillas in paper towels and microwave for 15 to 30 seconds.

Arrange warm tortillas on a clean work surface. Evenly portion the chicken Caesar salad mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a burrito shape. Insert a toothpick if needed to secure. Slice wraps in half or serve whole.
