Chicken wraps FAQ:

How long should I cook the chicken breast for the wraps?

Cook the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes on each side over medium-high heat, until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

What can I use instead of mayonnaise in the wraps?

You can substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt, hummus, or avocado for a healthier option or different flavor profile.

How should I store leftover chicken wraps?

If you have leftover wraps, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For best texture, it’s recommended to keep the ingredients separate until ready to eat.

What type of tortilla works best for chicken wraps?

You can use flour, corn, or whole wheat tortillas depending on your preference. Flour tortillas are soft and flexible, while corn tortillas provide a firmer texture.

How do I know when my chicken is done cooking?

The chicken is done when it is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. Using a meat thermometer, ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Tips:

- Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and any other favorite spices before cooking to enhance the flavor.

- Grilling or baking the chicken instead of pan-frying can make the wrap healthier by reducing the amount of added fat.

- To add a bit of zest, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a few drops of hot sauce to the mayonnaise.

- For added crunch, try using a mix of different lettuce types or adding some thinly sliced cucumbers or bell peppers.

- Warming the tortilla slightly before adding the ingredients will make it more pliable and easier to wrap.
