# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
02 - Dredge each chicken thigh in flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat thoroughly in seasoned panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
03 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken thighs for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
04 - Bake chicken thighs in oven for 15 to 18 minutes until cooked through and crispy. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
05 - While chicken bakes, cook bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
06 - In a large bowl, toss chopped romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing until well coated.
07 - Warm tortillas briefly in a dry pan or microwave to make them pliable for rolling.
08 - Lay out each tortilla. Arrange a generous amount of Caesar-dressed romaine in the center. Top with sliced crispy chicken, 2 bacon slices, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and black pepper if desired.
09 - Roll up each wrap tightly, folding in the sides to secure the filling. Slice in half and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
