Print Recipe

A quick and easy chicken wrap featuring tender chicken, sharp cheddar, crisp apple slices, and a tangy honey mustard sauce. Perfect for lunch or a light dinner with a delightful balance of sweet, savory, and crunchy textures.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced or shredded (cooked)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 medium crisp apple (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith), thinly sliced
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 50g)
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch) or whole wheat tortillas
  • A handful of baby spinach or arugula
  • Optional: thinly sliced red onion
  • Optional: black pepper

Instructions

  1. If chicken is not cooked, season 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat with olive oil and cook chicken 5–7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Let rest, then slice thinly or shred.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, and 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar until smooth. Adjust sweetness or tang to taste.
  3. Wash and thinly slice one medium crisp apple.
  4. Warm each tortilla briefly in a hot, dry skillet (about 15 seconds per side) or microwave for 10 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel to make flexible.
  5. Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread about 1 tablespoon honey mustard sauce over the center. Layer baby spinach or arugula, sliced chicken, 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar, and apple slices. Add red onion or black pepper if desired.
  6. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose filling. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  7. Optional: Grill the wrap seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, press gently, flip and grill another 2 minutes until golden and cheese melts.

Notes

Do not overcook the chicken to keep it juicy. Slice apple very thin for best texture. Warm tortillas before assembling to prevent tearing. Grilling the wrap is optional but adds a nice melty, crispy finish. Prepare sauce ahead but assemble wraps just before serving to avoid soggy tortillas and softened apples.
