Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Seasoning
- 2 large chicken breasts (approximately 1 pound total)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Wrap Ingredients
- 4 whole wheat tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
Optional
- ¼ cup ranch dressing (for serving)
Instructions
- Prep the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry and evenly season them with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. This ensures a flavorful crust after cooking.
- Cook the Chicken: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken is cooked through and crispy on the outside.
- Slice the Chicken: Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes. Then, slice it thinly to prepare for wrapping.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out each whole wheat tortilla. Add an even layer of fresh spinach leaves, sliced chicken, and shredded mozzarella cheese on each tortilla. Roll the tortillas up tightly to form wraps.
- Crisp the Wraps: Return the assembled wraps to the air fryer basket seam side down. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese melts inside.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve with ranch dressing on the side if desired.
Notes
- For extra crispy wraps, lightly brush the tortillas with olive oil before air frying.
- If you prefer spicier wraps, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken seasoning.
- Feel free to substitute mozzarella with cheddar or a blend of cheeses according to preference.
- These wraps can be prepared ahead and refrigerated; reheat in the air fryer for best results.
