How to make Light Chicken Caesar Wrap

Tips from the cook

  • Cut the chicken into even pieces, so it air fries evenly in about 12 minutes.
  • Toss the filling with the sauce just before rolling, so the lettuce stays crisp.
  • Tuck the sides in and roll tightly, then cut in half.
  • No bacon? Leave it out for a lighter wrap.
