Ingredients

Scale

For the Shrimp:

  • 1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Caesar Dressing:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wraps:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (shaved)
  • 1/2 cup croutons (optional)
  • 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled, optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, toss the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper ensuring they are evenly coated for optimal flavor.
  2. Grill Shrimp: Heat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque, indicating they are perfectly cooked and juicy.
  3. Make the Caesar Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
  4. Season the Dressing: Taste the dressing and add salt and pepper as needed to balance the flavors to your preference.
  5. Warm the Tortillas: Heat a skillet over medium heat and warm each flour tortilla for about 30 seconds per side until they are pliable and slightly toasted.
  6. Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous layer of the Caesar dressing across each tortilla, then layer grilled shrimp, chopped romaine lettuce, shaved Parmesan cheese, and top with optional croutons and crumbled bacon for extra crunch and flavor.
  7. Roll the Wraps: Fold the sides of each tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom up to securely enclose the filling.
  8. Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately to enjoy the wraps at their freshest and tastiest.

Notes

  • For a healthier option, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt in the dressing.
  • You can omit the bacon and croutons to make the wrap lighter or to cater to dietary preferences.
  • Ensure shrimp are not overcooked to maintain their tenderness and avoid a rubbery texture.
  • Customize the wrap by adding sliced avocado or tomatoes for extra flavor and texture.
  • Make sure tortillas are warmed to prevent cracking when rolling the wraps.
