Print Recipe

Get ready to fall head over heels for the Honey Mustard Chicken Crunch Wrap, a flavor-packed, texture-rich masterpiece. This wrap combines sweet and tangy honey mustard-coated chicken with the glorious crunch of a tostada, all nestled inside a warm tortilla.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 to 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup honey mustard sauce
  • Large flour tortillas (10-12 inches)
  • Small flour tortillas or tostada shells
  • 1–1.5 cups shredded cheese (cheddar and Monterey Jack blend)
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce
  • 1–2 medium diced tomatoes
  • Optional: thinly sliced or finely diced red onion
  • Optional: sliced dill pickles
  • Optional: cooked and crumbled beef bacon bits
  • Optional: sliced or mashed avocado
  • Optional: fresh or pickled jalapeños
  • Cooking oil (vegetable, canola, or light olive oil)

Instructions

  1. Cook your chicken breasts or thighs (1-1.5 lbs) using your preferred method. I often boil mine for about 15-20 minutes until cooked through, then easily shred it with two forks. You could also bake them at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or pan-fry until golden and cooked.
  2. Once cooked and shredded/diced, transfer the chicken to a medium bowl.
  3. Add about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of your honey mustard sauce to the chicken (adjust to your preference). Stir well to ensure every piece of chicken is coated.
  4. Finely shred about 1 cup of crisp lettuce.
  5. Dice 1-2 medium tomatoes.
  6. Shred 1-1.5 cups of your preferred cheese blend.
  7. Prepare any other optional add-ins like diced red onion, pickles, or beef bacon bits. Have everything ready and within reach.
  8. Gently warm your large flour tortillas in a dry pan, microwave, or oven for about 10-15 seconds each.
  9. If using a small flour tortilla for the inner crunch, you might want to toast it lightly in a dry pan until slightly stiff.
  10. Lay one large, warmed flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  11. Spoon a generous amount of your honey mustard chicken mixture (about 1/2 cup) into the center of the large tortilla. Spread it out slightly, leaving a good border around the edges.
  12. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of shredded cheese directly over the chicken.
  13. Carefully place one tostada shell (or the lightly toasted small tortilla, or a handful of crushed tortilla chips) directly on top of the cheese. Press down gently.
  14. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup of shredded cheese over the tostada shell.
  15. Pile your shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes (and any other fresh add-ins like red onion, pickles, or avocado) directly on top of the second cheese layer.
  16. Place a small 6-inch flour tortilla on top of the fresh ingredients.
  17. Starting from one edge of the large tortilla, begin folding the edges inwards towards the center, overlapping them neatly. Work your way around the wrap, making small, tight folds until the entire inner filling is enclosed.
  18. Heat 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  19. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the assembled crunch wrap, seam-side down, into the hot pan.
  20. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside has started to melt.
  21. Gently flip the crunch wrap with a spatula and cook for another 3-5 minutes on the other side until it's also golden brown and crispy.
  22. Carefully remove from the pan, let it cool for a minute or two, and then slice it in half for that perfect cross-section reveal.
  23. Enjoy your freshly made Honey Mustard Chicken Crunch Wrap!

Keywords: Don't be afraid to customize your honey mustard sauce or the fillings. Use crushed tortilla chips for extra crunch, and ensure your tortilla is warm for easier folding.
