Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, chili powder, paprika, cumin and some salt and pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is evenly coated with the spices, browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
• To make the dressing, mix the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, adobo sauce, garlic salt, Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl until well combined. Add the romaine lettuce and toss until well coated. Then add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan and toss again.
• Lay out the tortillas and top each one with half of the dressed romaine, tomatoes, Cheddar cheese and taco chicken. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Roll up the tortillas, leaving one end open, then wrap in sandwich paper, leaving 1 to 2 inches of the wrap open and exposed. Enjoy, removing the paper as needed. To transport, cover each wrap entirely in foil.

• Remove the tails from the shrimp and place the shrimp in a bowl or, pack for travel, if this is a picnic meal.
• To remove the chicken meat from the chicken, cut the chicken breasts off first. Cut the legs and thighs off using kitchen scissors to help you. Slice the meat up on an angle. Arrange on a plate or in a plastic container.
• Place mayonnaise, garlic, lemon, anchovy paste, cheese, Worcestershire and pepper into the blender and turn it on. Stream the extra-virgin olive oil into the dressing through center of the lid. When the oil is combined, remove the thick dressing with a spatula to a bowl or a portable plastic container.
• Place lettuce on a serving platter or pack in large plastic bag or container to travel.
• To assemble, spread dressing onto a lettuce leaf. Fill leaf with a large shrimp or sliced cold chicken, like a lettuce taco, and eat!
