Instructions

  1. Coat the chicken breast in ½ tablespoon of olive oil and seasoning. Air fry at 375ºF for 14-16 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before chopping and combining with the other filling ingredients.
  2. Use a knife to roughly chop the pepperoni, ham, cheese, pepperoncini, and lettuce. Add to a large mixing bowl along with the Italian seasoning and 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and red wine vinegar. Add the cooled and chopped chicken breast and stir to combine. Salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Mix the sauce ingredients together and set aside.
  4. To assemble the wraps, heat the tortillas for 30-60 seconds in a pan over medium heat until pliable. Spread the sauce all over the tortilla before adding about 8 oz (225g) of the filling. Wrap like a burrito and slice in half when ready to serve.

💡 Notes & Tips

  • You can substitute the air fried chicken breast for 12 ounces of any cooked chicken like rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken breast.
  • The nutrition facts were calculated with Mi Rancho whole wheat burrito tortillas.
  • To reduce the fat content of each wrap, consider swapping turkey pepperoni for more ham or reducing the amount of provolone or using a lower fat cheese.
  • If you want to make the chopped chicken filling and sauces in bulk to make wraps all week long, store the lettuce separately and mix it in before assembling so it's crunchy and fresh.
