Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Sauce
- 2–3 cups cooked chicken (grilled, shredded, or breaded)
- ½ cup sweet chili sauce
Wrap and Vegetables
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- 1–2 cups shredded lettuce or cabbage
- 1 carrot, julienned
- ½ red bell pepper, sliced thin
- ½ cucumber, sliced into matchsticks
Optional Ingredients
- 4 tbsp cream cheese, ranch, or Greek yogurt
- Chopped cilantro, green onions, sesame seeds
Instructions
- Toss chicken with sauce: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the sweet chili sauce, ensuring every piece is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
- Warm tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas briefly in a dry pan or microwave until they become pliable and easy to fold without tearing.
- Spread creamy base (optional): If using, spread about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese, ranch dressing, or Greek yogurt on each warmed tortilla to add a smooth, tangy layer.
- Add fillings: Layer shredded lettuce or cabbage evenly over each tortilla, followed by the sauced chicken, then top with julienned carrot, thinly sliced red bell pepper, cucumber matchsticks, and optional chopped cilantro, green onions, or sesame seeds for added freshness and crunch.
- Roll and serve: Roll each tortilla tightly to encase the fillings, slice the wraps in half for easier eating, and serve immediately or refrigerate to chill and enjoy later.
Notes
- Use leftover grilled or roasted chicken for convenience.
- Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to control the spice level.
- Substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps if needed.
- Optional creamy spread helps balance the sweet and spicy flavors.
- These wraps are best eaten fresh but can be wrapped tightly and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
