Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Seasoning
- 2 large chicken breasts (Approximately 1 pound total)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Wrap Components
- 4 whole wheat tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
For Serving (Optional)
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a mixing bowl, combine garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat evenly with the seasoning mixture.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Cook Chicken Strips: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange the seasoned chicken strips in a single layer inside the basket. Air fry for 8 minutes, flipping the strips halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked.
- Assemble Wraps: Remove the cooked chicken from the air fryer. On each whole wheat tortilla, place a layer of fresh spinach leaves, sprinkle a generous handful of shredded mozzarella cheese, and top with chicken strips.
- Roll and Prepare Wraps: Roll the tortillas tightly to enclose the fillings completely. Lightly spray the outside of each wrap with olive oil spray to promote crispiness.
- Air Fry Wraps: Place the wraps seam-side down in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 2-3 minutes, or until the tortilla wraps turn crispy and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove wraps from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly. Slice each wrap in half and serve with ranch dressing on the side, if desired.
Notes
- Ensure chicken strips are cut evenly for consistent cooking.
- You can substitute ranch dressing with any preferred dipping sauce or omit for a lighter option.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow even air circulation.
- Cook times may vary depending on air fryer brand and size; adjust accordingly.
- Whole wheat tortillas add fiber and nutrients; regular tortillas can be used as an alternative.
