Directions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp:
    • Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
    • In a bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
    • Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and have a slight char. Remove from the grill and set aside.
  2. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Warm the tortillas or wraps slightly in a pan or microwave to make them more pliable.
    • Spread about a tablespoon of Caesar dressing onto each wrap.
    • Layer the chopped romaine lettuce evenly across the tortillas, followed by grilled shrimp, Parmesan cheese, and cherry tomatoes (if using).
    • Sprinkle with crushed croutons for added crunch, if desired.
  3. Wrap It Up:
    • Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly into a wrap.
    • Slice in half if desired, and serve with a squeeze of lemon for a bright, fresh finish.

Tips for the Best Grilled Shrimp Caesar Wraps

  • Use fresh shrimp: For the best flavor and texture, try to use fresh shrimp, but frozen shrimp will work well too if thawed properly.
  • Homemade Caesar dressing: While store-bought dressing is convenient, making your own Caesar dressing at home can elevate the flavors even more.
  • Add extras: For a heartier wrap, consider adding extras like avocado, bacon crumbles, or pickled red onions.

Why These Wraps Stand Out

These Grilled Shrimp Caesar Wraps are a delightful twist on a classic Caesar salad. The shrimp adds a smoky, succulent element to the mix, while the creamy Caesar dressing and crunchy romaine provide that signature Caesar flavor and texture. Wrap it all in a soft tortilla, and you’ve got a light yet satisfying meal that’s perfect for any occasion.
