Instructions

Tap a step number to check it off as you cook.

Pat the 2 pechugas de pollo grandes dry with paper towels. In a mixing bowl, combine the ½ tsp polvo de ajo, ½ tsp polvo de cebolla, ½ tsp sal kosher, and ¼ tsp pimienta negra. If the 2 pechugas de pollo grandes are very thick (more than 1 inch), pound them to an even thickness with a heavy pan or meat mallet. Rub both sides of each breast with 1 tbsp aceite de oliva, then coat evenly with the spice mix.

Uses

  • Chicken Breast
  • 5–6 min
  • Medium-high

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the 2 pechugas de pollo grandes and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until a deep golden-brown crust forms on the bottom. Flip and cook for another 4–6 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F at the thickest part.

Uses

  • Skillet
  • 5 min

Transfer the 2 pechugas de pollo grandes to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes — this keeps it juicy. Slice against the grain into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.

While the 2 pechugas de pollo grandes rests, make the dressing. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the ½ cup mayonesa, minced ajo finamente picado o rallado, 2 tbsp jugo de limón, 1 tsp salsa Worcestershire, and 1 tsp mostaza Dijon until smooth. Stir in the grated queso Parmesano and ¼ tsp pimienta negra. Taste and add a pinch of sal kosher if needed. The dressing should be creamy, tangy, and well-seasoned.

Uses

  • Worcestershire Sauce
  • Dijon Mustard

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped lechuga romana and shaved 2 tbsp queso Parmesano. Drizzle with about half the Caesar dressing and toss to coat. Add more dressing to your preference — you want every leaf lightly coated but not soggy.

Uses

  • Mixing Bowl
  • 1–1 min
  • Medium

Warm the 4 large tortillas de harina one at a time in the dry skillet over medium heat for about 20–30 seconds per side, just until pliable and lightly toasted. Keep them wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to stay warm and flexible.

Uses

  • Skillet
  • Flour Tortilla

Lay a warm 4 large tortillas de harina flat on your work surface. Arrange a quarter of the dressed 4 cups lechuga romana mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch border on all sides. Top with a quarter of the sliced pechugas de pollo grandes, a handful of crushed 1 cup crutones, and an extra drizzle of dressing if desired.

Uses

  • Flour Tortilla
  • 1–1 min

Fold the sides of the large tortillas de harina inward, then roll from the bottom up tightly, tucking the filling in as you go. For a sealed, toasty wrap, place it seam-side down back in the warm skillet for 30–60 seconds to seal. Repeat with remaining large tortillas de harina and filling. Slice each wrap in half on a diagonal and serve immediately.
