02 - In a separate bowl, combine panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken strips in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
03 - Arrange breaded chicken strips on the prepared tray. Lightly spray with olive oil and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crispy.
04 - Whisk together Greek yogurt, olive oil, Parmesan, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
05 - Briefly warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to facilitate rolling.
06 - Lay tortillas flat and spread a thin layer of dressing on each. Layer chopped romaine, halved cherry tomatoes, roasted red pepper strips arranged at one end, crispy chicken strips, and shredded Parmesan.
07 - Drizzle extra dressing over the fillings, roll tightly tucking in the ends, slice in half if preferred, and serve immediately.
