Method
 

Prepare the Grilled Shrimp
  1. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, lightly oil it.
  3. Arrange the seasoned shrimp in a single layer on the hot grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Do not overcook. Remove from heat and set aside.
Make the Caesar Dressing
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon olive oil, water, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Adjust consistency with more water or milk if too thick. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Assemble the Grilled Shrimp Caesar Wraps
  1. In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce with about half of the Caesar dressing. Toss gently to coat the lettuce evenly.
  2. Lay each flour tortilla flat. Spread a thin layer of Caesar dressing on each tortilla, leaving about an inch clear around the edges.
  3. Divide the dressed romaine lettuce evenly between the two tortillas, placing it slightly off-center. Top the lettuce with half of the grilled shrimp, then sprinkle with crushed croutons and shaved Parmesan cheese.
  4. To wrap: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll from the bottom upwards. If desired, you can gently warm the tortillas for 15-20 seconds in a microwave or dry skillet before assembling to make them more pliable.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious grilled shrimp caesar wrap!

Notes

For a quicker preparation, use your favorite store-bought Caesar dressing. To prevent soggy wraps, assemble just before serving. If preparing ahead, keep the dressing, shrimp, and lettuce separate and combine right before eating.
