# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's ready in under 30 minutes, which means you can make it on a weeknight without stress.
  • The chicken stays tender and juicy, and that homemade Caesar dressing tastes infinitely better than bottled.
  • It's portable enough for lunch boxes but impressive enough to serve at a casual gathering.
02 -
  • Don't skip the resting step after grilling—those 5 minutes let the juices redistribute, and when you slice the chicken, it'll be tender instead of dry.
  • The homemade dressing makes this wrap, so take the time to whisk it properly and taste it before assembling; a squeeze more lemon or a pinch more salt can transform the whole thing.
03 -
  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before cooking so they cook through at the same time without one side getting overdone.
  • Make extra dressing and keep it in the fridge—it's suddenly perfect for salads, as a dip for vegetables, or spread on sandwiches throughout the week.
