Recipe Questions

→ What type of chicken works best for the wraps?

Grilled, fried, or rotisserie chicken all provide great flavor and texture, allowing flexibility based on preference or leftovers.

→ How can I keep the wraps from becoming soggy?

Keep the salad filling and tortillas separate until ready to serve and ensure the dressing isn’t overly applied to avoid sogginess.

→ Are there good vegetarian alternatives to the chicken?

Omitting chicken and adding extra croutons or roasted chickpeas creates a satisfying vegetarian option with added crunch.

→ Can I prepare the filling in advance?

Yes, the salad filling can be made ahead and stored separately; assemble with warmed tortillas just before serving for best texture.

→ What variations can enhance the flavor?

Adding crispy bacon or sliced avocado introduces smoky or creamy layers, enhancing the overall taste experience.
