Chicken Wraps

These Chicken Wraps are a perfect blend of flavors and textures, featuring tender chicken, crisp vegetables, and creamy dressing, making for a quick and healthy meal option.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (about 2 medium chicken breasts)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing or hummus

Instructions

  • To start, if you don’t already have cooked chicken on hand, you can either boil or grill chicken breasts until fully cooked. Once cooled, shred the chicken using two forks or your hands. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine, allowing the spices to coat the chicken evenly. Cook for about 5 minutes until heated through, ensuring the flavors meld beautifully.
  • Now comes the fun part—assembling your Chicken Wraps! Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface or a plate. Start by placing a generous portion of the warm, seasoned chicken in the center of the tortilla. Follow this with a handful of chopped romaine lettuce and a sprinkle of halved cherry tomatoes. For an added layer of flavor, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top. Lastly, drizzle your choice of ranch dressing or hummus over the filling to enhance the taste.
  • With the filling in place, it’s time to roll up your wraps. Begin by folding the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling. Then, starting from the bottom, carefully roll the tortilla away from you, tucking the filling in as you go. Once you’ve reached the top, the wrap should be securely closed. For added security, you can wrap each one in parchment paper or foil. This not only keeps them together but also makes them easy to transport if you're on the go.
  • Your Chicken Wraps are now ready to be served! You can slice them in half for easier handling or enjoy them whole. If desired, serve them with additional ranch dressing or hummus on the side for dipping. These wraps are best enjoyed fresh, but they also hold up well if you need to save some for later.

Notes

Chicken Wraps are versatile and can be customized with your favorite vegetables and sauces. They can also be made gluten-free by using gluten-free tortillas.
