Ingredients

Scale

For the Shrimp:

1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Caesar Dressing:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove (minced)
Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wraps:

4 large flour tortillas
2 cups romaine lettuce (chopped)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (shaved)
1/2 cup croutons (optional)
4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled, optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, toss the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Grill Shrimp: Heat the grill to medium-high and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque, indicating they are cooked through. Remove from heat and drizzle with lemon juice for added brightness.
Make the Caesar Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic until smooth. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
Warm the Tortillas: Heat a skillet over medium heat and warm each flour tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable and slightly toasted, which makes rolling easier.
Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous layer of Caesar dressing evenly over each warmed tortilla. Top with grilled shrimp, chopped romaine lettuce, shaved Parmesan cheese, and if desired, sprinkle with crumbled bacon and croutons for extra texture and flavor.
Roll the Wraps: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling securely and form a neat wrap.
Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and warm grilled shrimp.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps.
Omit bacon and croutons for a lighter, vegetarian-friendly version (without shrimp, substitute with grilled vegetables).
Adjust seasoning on shrimp before grilling to your preference for spiciness or smokiness.
Wraps can be prepared ahead and refrigerated; warm briefly before serving to restore softness of tortillas.
