Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • ½ cup chicken broth or water

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp onion powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ¼ tsp black pepper

  • â…“ cup clean Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)

  • ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

  • Romaine or butter lettuce leaves, for wrapping

  • Optional toppings: halved cherry tomatoes, croutons, extra Caesar drizzle, avocado

 

Instructions:

  1. Cook the chicken
    Place chicken, broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or high for 2½–3 hours, until chicken is tender and shreds easily.

  2. Shred & sauce
    Remove chicken, shred with two forks, and return to slow cooker. Stir in Caesar dressing and Parmesan. Let it warm for 5–10 more minutes.

  3. Assemble the wraps
    Spoon warm Caesar chicken into washed lettuce leaves. Top with your favorite extras — tomatoes, croutons, avocado, or more cheese.

  4. Serve immediately
    Perfect for lunch, light dinners, or meal prep containers with a wedge of lemon on the side.

 

Sarah’s Tips:

  • Make it dairy-free: Use a plant-based Caesar dressing and skip the Parmesan.

  • Meal prep win: Store chicken and lettuce separately; assemble just before eating.

  • For a bigger appetite: Serve over rice, quinoa, or in a low-carb wrap.

  • Crunch factor: Add a few clean croutons or roasted chickpeas for texture.

 

Flavorful Conclusion:

These Crockpot Chicken Caesar Lettuce Wraps are light, flavorful, and a fun twist on a classic salad — no fork required. Perfect for hot nights, quick lunches, or anytime you want something cool and nourishing that still feels like a treat.
