STEP FOUR: Place the tortilla on a flat surface. Add a heaping tablespoon of the mayo-mustard and spread.

How to Cook Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

Don’t have any leftover chicken to use? No problem! It’s super easy to whip up tender, juicy chicken breasts that will be perfect in your wrap.

  1. Heat a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. 
  2. Season the chicken lightly with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. 
  3. Spray the pan with cooking oil spray, then add the chicken and sear for 4-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. 
  4. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set it aside, letting it rest until you’re ready to use.

Variations for Your Wraps

Want to swap out ingredients or spice things up with your wrap? The sky’s the limit!

  • Make it a chicken bacon ranch wrap by adding a few tablespoons of ranch in place of the mayo-mustard blend — it’s exactly as crave-worthy as it sounds.
  • Change up any of the fillings. Try out different cheese blends, add some avocado, or throw in some of your favorite veggies.
  • Cook the chicken bacon wrap in an air fryer — spritz oil on the wrapped tortillas and cook at 360 degrees for about 6 to 8 minutes, flipping once.

Tips for Making the Best Chicken Bacon Wraps

  • Need a quick bacon recipe? Learn how to make Air Fryer Bacon, Instant Pot Bacon, or cook the bacon in an oven in a snap!
  • Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces or strips. This will make the wrap easier to eat.
  • Be careful not to overfill the wrap so it will be easier to roll and seal.
  • Use a spatula to hold the wrap seam-side down in the pan when it first begins to cook. This will really help seal the seam so your wrap won’t come undone

What to Serve with Chicken Bacon Wraps

Can You Make a Single Serving Wrap?

Only want one wrap instead of four? No problem!

Just scale back on the ingredients and then assemble your single-serving wrap.

This is going to be easiest if you’re working with leftover chicken.

If you need to cook a chicken breast, you can always slice up half for your wrap and then save the other half for a future meal.

As for the tomato, you can either substitute smaller cherry tomatoes or just plan to use the rest of the tomato in another recipe like this Mango Habanero Salsa.
