Method
- Cook bacon in a single layer in a skillet or on a baking sheet at 400°F until uniformly crispy. Transfer to paper towels to drain and cool completely.
- Place tomato slices on paper towels, sprinkle with salt, and let sit for 5-10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Prep lettuce, onion, and avocado.
- In a bowl, make the herbed mayo spread by combining mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Warm tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable. Lay one flat.
- Spread a generous, even layer of herbed mayo over the entire tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
- In the lower third, layer in this order: romaine lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, avocado (if using), broken crispy bacon, and a handful of crunchy fried onions or chips.
- Fold the left and right sides of the tortilla inward. Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the wrap away from you, tucking in the filling as you go.
- Wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil to hold its shape, or slice in half diagonally. Serve immediately.
Notes
For best make-ahead results, assemble and wrap tightly in parchment + foil. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours. The crunchiest texture is achieved when eaten immediately after adding the final crunchy element.
