Honey mustard chicken wraps remind me of those sunny afternoons when I wanted something filling yet light, so I grilled some chicken, drizzled it with honey mustard sauce, and wrapped it all up in a tortilla. The smoky grill marks on the chicken combined with the tangy sweetness of the sauce made every bite unforgettable, and it instantly became one of my favorite quick meals.

One day, I tried adding a handful of fresh lettuce and shredded cheddar inside, and the combination of crisp, creamy, and juicy textures was perfection. This recipe is now my go-to when I need a fast dinner or a grab-and-go lunch that doesn’t compromise on flavor or satisfaction.

Ingredients

Here’s what I use for this flavorful wrap:

Chicken breast – The juicy grilled protein that’s the heart of the wrap.
Honey mustard sauce – Sweet, tangy, and creamy, it coats the chicken beautifully.
Cheddar cheese – Melts slightly and adds a sharp, creamy bite.
Fresh lettuce – Provides a refreshing crunch.
Flour tortillas – Wrap everything together in a soft, warm shell.
Olive oil – Helps grill the chicken to perfection.
Seasonings (salt, pepper, paprika) – Enhance the chicken’s flavor.

Tools You’ll Need

Grill pan – For creating those delicious char marks on the chicken.
Mixing bowl – To coat the chicken with seasonings.
Tongs – Make flipping chicken easier while grilling.
Knife – For slicing chicken into strips.
Cutting board – Keeps your prep neat and safe.
Skillet (optional) – To warm tortillas before assembling.

Instructions

Step 1:

I start by seasoning the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a touch of paprika.

Step 2:

I preheat my grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5–6 minutes per side until juicy and fully cooked.

Step 3:

Once cooked, I let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes, then slice it into strips.

Step 4:

I warm the tortillas slightly in a skillet to make them soft and pliable.

Step 5:

I lay lettuce on each tortilla, add the sliced chicken, drizzle generously with honey mustard sauce, and sprinkle shredded cheddar on top.

Step 6:

I roll the tortillas tightly, folding in the sides as I go, and cut them in half for easy serving.

Step 7:

Finally, I serve them warm with extra honey mustard sauce on the side for dipping.

Tips

I love marinating the chicken in honey mustard sauce for an hour before grilling to deepen the flavor. You can also add sliced avocado or crispy bacon for a twist. For a low-carb version, wrap everything in lettuce leaves instead of tortillas.

Ways to Serve

These wraps are perfect on their own but also pair beautifully with a side of sweet potato fries or a light cucumber salad. They’re great for picnics, lunches, or casual dinners.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?

Yes, thighs work wonderfully and stay even juicier when grilled.

Can I make the honey mustard sauce from scratch?

Absolutely! Just mix honey, mustard, a splash of lemon juice, and a bit of mayonnaise for creaminess.

Can I store these wraps?

Yes, wrap them tightly in foil and refrigerate, but add the sauce just before eating to avoid sogginess.
