Ingredients:

• Cooked Chicken (for this recipe, you'll need just under a pound of chicken; see preparation method below)
• Romaine Lettuce
• Roma Tomatoes
• Red Onion
• Shredded Cheese (any variety that you prefer)
• Chick-fil-A Sauce or BBQ Sauce (the recipe suggests that Chick-fil-A Sauce, or a Honey BBQ based sauce, is a great addition but there are alternatives)
• Flour Tortillas (at least 9-inch sized or Burrito Sized tortillas recommended)

How To Make Shredded Chicken:

1. Completely cover the chicken breast with water and bring it to a boil.
2. Simmer for 4 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breasts.
3. Ensure it's cooked until reaching an internal temperature of 165°F. Using an instant-read thermometer with a long cord is recommended to monitor temperature without interrupting cooking.
4. Alternatively, you could use a rotisserie chicken or make shredded chicken in an Instant Pot for convenience.

Optional Sauce Ideas:

• BBQ Sauce
• Ranch Dressing
• Garlic Aioli
• Pesto
• Sriracha Mayonnaise

Assembly and Grilling:

1. Lay out a tortilla and begin by placing your cooked shredded chicken and preferred sauce down the center.
2. Add Romaine lettuce, sliced Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, and shredded cheese on top of the chicken.
3. Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly.
4. Place the wrap seam side down on a hot grill or grill pan.
5. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and grill for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until crispy outside and the cheese is melted inside. If the wrap starts to open while grilling, use a toothpick to secure it.

FAQ:

• Do I need to grill chicken wraps? Grilling is not an absolute necessity but is recommended for adding a crisp exterior and melty cheese.
• Are chicken wraps eaten warm or cold? They are delicious both ways, whether fresh off the grill or packed cold for a lunchbox.

Notes:

• This recipe is flexible and allows for the use of various sauces and fillings based on personal preference.
