Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 large leaves romaine lettuce leaves
• 2 tablespoons capers
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 pieces anchovy fillets
• 1 large egg yolk
• 2 teaspoons coconut aminos
• 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Rub the chicken breasts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Ensure the chicken is well-coated.

Step 3

Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 4

In a blender or food processor, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, anchovy fillets, egg yolk, and coconut aminos. Blend until smooth and emulsified.

Step 5

Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while blending, to form a creamy Caesar dressing.

Step 6

Place a large romaine lettuce leaf flat on a clean surface. Layer a portion of the grilled chicken slices, a few whole capers, and a drizzle of the homemade Caesar dressing.

Step 7

Carefully roll the lettuce leaf around the filling to form a wrap, securing with a toothpick if necessary.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make four wraps in total.

Step 9

Serve immediately while the chicken is warm, enjoying the crunchy lettuce and savory flavors of the Caesar dressing.
