Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or finely chopped (rotisserie works great)
  • 8–10 mini flour tortillas (4–6 inches)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce or finely chopped romaine
  • 1 small cucumber, diced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, sliced thin
  • 1 small carrot, julienned or grated
  • 1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional)
  • Sauce options (choose one or mix):
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt + 1 tablespoon lemon juice + pinch of salt
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise + 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing or Caesar dressing
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (optional, for warming tortillas)
  • Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Prep the chicken: If using rotisserie or leftover chicken, shred or chop it into small pieces. Season lightly with salt and pepper if needed.
  2. Make the sauce: In a bowl, stir together your chosen sauce. Taste and adjust with lemon, salt, pepper, or a pinch of garlic powder.
  3. Toss the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine chicken with 2–3 tablespoons of sauce to lightly coat. This keeps the chicken juicy.
  4. Chop the veggies: Keep pieces small so they fit neatly in mini tortillas. Pat any wet veggies dry so wraps don’t get soggy.
  5. Warm the tortillas (optional): Heat a skillet over medium, add a touch of oil or butter, and warm tortillas 10–15 seconds per side. This makes them more pliable.
  6. Assemble: Lay out a tortilla. Add a small line of chicken, a sprinkle of cheese, and a handful of veggies. Drizzle or spread a little more sauce on top.
  7. Wrap tight: Fold the sides in slightly, then roll from the bottom up into a snug mini wrap. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  8. Serve: Arrange on a platter, garnish with herbs, and add lime wedges on the side. Offer extra sauce for dipping.
