Tips

• For extra crispiness, broil chicken for 1-2 minutes at the end, watching carefully to avoid burning.
• If you prefer your wraps soft, don't warm the tortillas too long.

Storage

Store wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a microwave or oven until warmed through.

Freezing: These wraps do not freeze well due to the lettuce becoming soggy upon thawing.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with a side of garlic bread or a simple garden salad.
• Pair with a chilled glass of white wine for a refreshing meal.
