Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Salad
- 3 cups shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup diced celery
- 1/3 cup chopped green onions
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro leaves
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 – 2 teaspoons hot sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Wrap Assembly
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- 8 medium tortillas
Instructions
- Combine Chicken Salad: In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, shredded carrots, diced celery, chopped green onions, mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, sour cream, and hot sauce until everything is well combined. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to your taste.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Spoon an even amount of the chicken salad mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the chicken mixture. Fold the sides of each tortilla inwards and roll it tightly to secure the wrap, ensuring the seam side is placed down to keep it closed.
- Toast in Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (205°C). Place the assembled wraps in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overcrowding. Toast them for 3 to 4 minutes until the tortillas are golden and toasted, and the cheese inside has melted. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to toast the wraps in batches.
Notes
- Adjust the hot sauce amount according to your spice preference.
- You can substitute the mayonnaise and sour cream with Greek yogurt for a healthier option.
- If you don’t have an air fryer, you can toast the wraps in a skillet or oven until golden and crispy.
- Use pre-cooked shredded chicken to save time.
- Store any leftover wraps wrapped well in the refrigerator and consume within 2 days for best taste and safety.
