Ingredients

Scale

3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
1/2 cup Caesar dressing
2 cups fresh romaine lettuce, chopped
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
6 small flour or corn tortillas
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Season chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown.
Remove cooked chicken from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes. Shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken with Caesar dressing to coat well.
Add chopped romaine and half of the Parmesan cheese to the chicken mixture and stir until combined.
Warm tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave. Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture and top with remaining Parmesan cheese and halved cherry tomatoes.
Serve immediately, optionally with extra dressing on the side.
