Instructions
 

  • Season and Heat Chicken:
    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil.
    Stir in shredded chicken, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper; cook 3–5 minutes until warm and lightly seasoned. Remove from heat.
  • Prepare Sauce:
    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt) and Dijon mustard until smooth.
  • Assemble Vegetables:
    Lay out tortillas on a clean surface.
    Evenly distribute shredded lettuce, diced tomato, sliced avocado, and shredded cheddar cheese down the center of each tortilla.
  • Add Chicken and Sauce:
    Spoon equal portions of seasoned chicken over the vegetables on each tortilla.
    Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the prepared sauce onto the chicken layer.
  • Wrap It Up:
    Fold the two sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly from one end to the other to form a sealed wrap.
    If desired, secure with a toothpick or wrap in parchment paper for stability.
  • Serve:
    Slice each wrap in half on the diagonal.
    Serve immediately, or refrigerate up to 4 hours before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds per side before assembling.
Substitute grilled or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
Add a handful of fresh spinach or arugula in place of lettuce for more nutrients.
To make ahead, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 4 hours; slice just before serving.
Store leftover chicken and ingredients separately; assemble fresh to prevent sogginess.
