Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups shredded tender rotisserie chicken (300g)
  • 0.5 cup thick creamy white Caesar dressing (120ml)
  • 0.25 cup finely diced crisp green celery (35g)
  • 0.5 tsp coarse black pepper flakes (1g)
  • 2 cups raw fresh baby spinach leaves (60g)
  • 2 large flour tortilla wraps 10-inch/25cm size
  • 0.25 tsp kosher salt (1.5g)

Equipment

  • 1 Chef's Knife Essential for finely dicing the green celery to prevent tortilla tearing.
  • 1 Large Glass Mixing Bowl Provides ample space to gently fold and coat the shredded chicken.
  • 1 Serrated Knife Crucial for slicing the finished wrap cleanly without crushing the filling.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Using your hands, shred the cold rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces and place 2 cups into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Slice the raw green celery stalks lengthwise and chop into a very fine dice. Add 1/4 cup to the mixing bowl.
  3. Pour the thick creamy white Caesar dressing over the chicken and add the kosher salt. Fold gently with a spatula until the mixture is glossy and heavily coated.
  4. Sprinkle the coarse black pepper flakes over the dressed chicken and fold gently a few times to evenly disperse them.
  5. Warm the flour tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Lay down a thick layer of raw fresh baby spinach leaves in the center of each wrap.
  6. Spoon the dense chicken filling over the spinach. Roll tightly, slice in half diagonally with a serrated knife, and serve immediately on a simple white ceramic plate.

Notes

Temperature Matters:
Always use cold or room-temperature shredded tender rotisserie chicken. Hot chicken will melt the fats in the Caesar dressing, ruining the thick, glossy finish.
The Mayo Trick:
If your store-bought Caesar dressing is too thin, vigorously whisk in one tablespoon of high-quality mayonnaise to immediately thicken the emulsion.
