Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 large leaves romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 piece garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 pieces anchovy fillets, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon coconut aminos
- 1 piece egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 piece avocado, sliced
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with freshly cracked black pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and no longer pink inside. Set aside to rest.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, chopped anchovy fillets, coconut aminos, and egg yolk until well combined. Slowly add the almond flour while whisking to achieve a smooth dressing consistency.
Slice the grilled chicken into thin strips.
To assemble the Paleo Caesar Salad Wraps, lay out a large romaine lettuce leaf. Place a few strips of grilled chicken onto each leaf, followed by a few slices of avocado.
Drizzle a spoonful of the Caesar dressing over the chicken and avocado.
Carefully roll the lettuce leaf into a wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to keep the filling inside.
Secure the wrap with a toothpick if necessary, and serve immediately.
