Tender chicken, crisp lettuce, and tangy honey-mustard dressing wrapped in a soft tortilla for a quick meal.

# Ingredient List:

→ Chicken

01 - 1 lb chicken tenders
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - ½ teaspoon salt
04 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper
05 - ½ teaspoon paprika

→ Dressing

06 - 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
07 - 2 tablespoons honey
08 - 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
09 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
10 - Salt and pepper to taste

→ Wraps and Fillings

11 - 4 large flour tortillas
12 - 2 cups shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce

14 - ½ small red onion, thinly sliced

# Directions:

01 - Preheat a skillet over medium heat and drizzle olive oil into the pan.
02 - Season chicken tenders with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook in the skillet for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes, then slice if desired.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
04 - Warm the tortillas for a few seconds in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable and easier to fold.
05 - Lay each tortilla flat. Spread a generous spoonful of honey-mustard dressing down the center. Top with lettuce, chicken, tomato, and red onion.
06 - Drizzle more honey-mustard dressing over the fillings.
07 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap.
08 - Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Everything cooks in one pan and comes together in under half an hour, perfect for nights when you're too tired to think.
  • The honey mustard dressing is sweet, tangy, and creamy all at once, turning plain chicken into something you'll crave.
  • You can prep the chicken and dressing ahead, then assemble wraps in minutes whenever hunger strikes.
  • It's endlessly adaptable: add bacon, swap the lettuce, use leftover rotisserie chicken, and it still works beautifully.
02 -
  • Don't skip resting the chicken after cooking, those two minutes let the juices settle so they don't all run out when you slice it.
  • Warm tortillas are the secret to wraps that don't crack or tear, cold ones straight from the fridge will split the moment you try to fold them.
  • If your dressing is too thick, add a tiny splash of water or lemon juice to loosen it up so it drizzles instead of clumps.
03 -
  • Pat the chicken dry before seasoning so it gets a better sear and doesn't steam in the pan.
  • Roll the wrap as tightly as you can without tearing it, a loose wrap falls apart the moment you pick it up.
  • If you're making these for a crowd, set up a wrap bar with all the fillings and let everyone build their own.
