Ingredients
  

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika (for depth of flavor)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

4 large flour tortillas or wraps

2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped into bite-sized pieces

1 cup Caesar dressing (can be store-bought or homemade)

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

½ cup croutons, lightly crushed (for added texture)

Fresh lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Shrimp: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl, making sure each shrimp is well coated in the marinade. Allow the shrimp to marinate for 15-20 minutes at room temperature for optimal flavor development.

    Preheat the Grill: While the shrimp is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, place it on the stovetop and heat it up over medium-high heat until hot.

      Grill the Shrimp: Carefully thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers for easier handling on the grill. Place the skewers on the grill, cooking each side for approximately 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp turn opaque and reach an internal temperature of 120°F (49°C). Once grilled to perfection, remove the shrimp from the skewers and set them aside.

        Prepare the Wraps: On a clean, flat surface, lay out the tortillas. Generously spread a layer of Caesar dressing on each tortilla, ensuring the dressing is evenly distributed for a balanced flavor throughout.

          Assemble the Wraps: Evenly layer the chopped romaine lettuce, grilled shrimp, grated Parmesan cheese, and lightly crushed croutons over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges for easy wrapping.

            Wrap it Up: To wrap, fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom to the top, creating a secure and compact wrap. Make sure to hold the filling in as you roll to keep everything intact.

              Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally for a visually appealing presentation. Serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of zing. Dig in and enjoy your flavorful Grilled Shrimp Caesar Wraps!
