Why You’ll Love These Creamy Chicken Tortilla Wraps

This recipe boasts succulent chicken breast, a creamy, lightly spiced dressing, and a colorful array of fresh veggies that add crunch and freshness. The wraps come together quickly, making them perfect for busy weeknights, yet they look and taste special enough for entertaining. The filling is satisfying without feeling heavy, thanks to the balance of protein, fiber, and a touch of tang from lime and cilantro.

How to Prepare the Chicken Filling

Start with juicy, seasoned chicken breasts. For consistent, even cubes or strips, it’s incredibly helpful to use a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper for dicing veggies and even chopping chicken post-cook for perfect bite-sized pieces. For shredding the chicken quickly and evenly, a Chicken Shredder Tool Twist for Kitchen is the ultimate time-saver.

You can sauté your chicken on the stove in a nonstick pan, or, for added convenience and lighter texture, cook it in the COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1. This not only locks in juiciness but also makes cleanup a breeze.

Assembling the Ultimate Creamy Chicken Tortilla Wraps

After preparing the chicken, combine it in a bowl with the creamy dressing and your chopped, crunchy vegetables. When laying out your tortillas, line your workspace with a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll—it helps prevent sticking and keeps cleanup minimal.

Fill each tortilla with a generous scoop of the creamy chicken mixture, making sure every wrap gets a balanced medley of chicken and veggies. Tightly roll the tortillas for neat, portable wraps ready for slicing and serving.

Serve these wraps whole or sliced into pinwheels for appetizers and party trays. They pair wonderfully with mixed greens or chips on the side, and for storing, use Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers to keep leftovers crisp and fresh. Pack them into a Bentgo Salad Container for easy lunches on the go.

Whether you’re meal prepping or feeding a crowd, these wraps are adaptable: switch up the veggies, adjust the spice, or offer dips like salsa or guacamole for extra flair.

Ingredients

2 medium boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
½ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
1 cup shredded lettuce
½ cup diced tomatoes
½ cup diced red bell pepper
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
4 large burrito-sized flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Preheat your COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1 to 380°F, or heat a skillet over medium-high. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil, then season thoroughly with chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook chicken in the air fryer for 15–18 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Or, cook in a skillet, turning once, for 5–7 minutes per side. Rest the chicken for 5 minutes, then use the Chicken Shredder Tool Twist for Kitchen to shred or chop into bite-sized pieces.
  3. While the chicken cooks, chop the lettuce, tomatoes, and bell pepper using the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper for fine, even pieces.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt or sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, hot sauce (if using), cheddar cheese, and cilantro. Stir in the chopped vegetables and the cooked, shredded chicken. Mix until well incorporated.
  5. Lay a tortilla on a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll. Add about 1/4 of the chicken mixture down the center. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Slice in half, or into pinwheels for appetizers. Serve immediately, or wrap and refrigerate in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for up to 3 days.
