Ingredients
-
2 large chicken breasts (about 1 lb / 450 g), cut into thin strips
-
1 tsp garlic powder
-
1 tsp paprika
-
½ tsp salt
-
½ tsp black pepper
-
4 whole wheat tortillas
-
1 cup (115 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
-
1 cup (30 g) fresh spinach leaves
-
¼ cup (60 ml) ranch dressing (optional, for serving)
-
Cooking spray or olive oil spray
Instructions
-
Season the chicken: In a bowl, toss the chicken strips with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
-
Preheat air fryer: Set the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for 3–5 minutes.
-
Cook the chicken: Spray the air fryer basket lightly with oil. Add chicken strips in a single layer and cook for about 8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and cooked through.
-
Assemble wraps: On each tortilla, layer spinach, shredded mozzarella, and crispy chicken.
-
Wrap tightly: Roll each tortilla, seam-side down, and spray lightly with olive oil spray.
-
Air fry again: Return wraps to the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes until crisp and lightly golden.
-
Serve: Slice in half and serve with ranch or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer — cook in batches for maximum crispiness.
Warm tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds to prevent cracking.
Customize with different cheeses or add-ins like avocado, kale, or chipotle mayo.
Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–4 minutes (skip the microwave).
Great for meal prep — store cooked wraps for up to 3 days or freeze individually for grab-and-go lunches.
