Asian Chicken Salad Wrap
INGREDIENTS:
For the Dressing
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sesame oil
For the Wraps
4 large crispy chicken strips (Foster Farms, Tyson, or Perdue all work)
2 Romaine lettuce hearts
1 & 1/2 cups tri-colored coleslaw
1/4 cup chow mein noodles
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
4 large flour tortillas , warmed slightly
DIRECTIONS:
Air fry the chicken strips according to the package directions in your air fryer. Remove and allow to cool slightly, then chop up into very small pieces. (While the chicken is cooking, prep the dressing and lettuce.)
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, honey, vinegar, mustard, and sesame oil until incorporated and creamy.
Trim the ends from the Romaine, slice in thirds lengthwise, then into ribbons crosswise.
Transfer lettuce and chicken pieces to a large mixing bowl along with the coleslaw, chow mein noodles, and almonds. Pour the dressing over the top and gently mix to coat evenly.
Divide the mixture between the tortillas near the bottom of the tortilla, then roll up like a burrito (fold the bottom of the tortilla over the mixture, pull the filling toward you, fold in the opposite sides, and roll snugly from the bottom up.)
If desired, warm up a couple teaspoons of olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat, swirl to coat. Place wrap seam-side down and cook until golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds, then flip and do the same on the other side. Watch it carefully so it doesn’t overbrown.
Slice in half on a slight diagonal and enjoy!
Notes
Try it with broccoli slaw. Sometimes I swap out the coleslaw with broccoli slaw and it’s also really good.
Omit the nuts and chow renin noodles. I love the textural crunch and flavor you get from the nuts and chow mein, but these wraps are still good without them.
Buy an Asian Salad kit. Most super markets have a variety of salad “kits” now where everything is already chopped and packaged together. The Asian salad kits I’ve seen come with a vinaigrette, though and not my preference over the creamy honey-sesame dressing, but still good!
Don’t toast them. There’s no law that says these have to be toasted. If preferred, you can certainly wrap up the filling and enjoy.
