03 - In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
04 - Warm the tortillas for a few seconds in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.

06 - Drizzle more honey-mustard dressing over the fillings.
07 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap.
08 - Slice in half and serve immediately.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It comes together in under half an hour, perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.
  • The honey mustard dressing is so good you'll want to drizzle it on everything.
  • You can prep the chicken and dressing ahead, then assemble wraps in minutes.
  • It's endlessly customizable with whatever vegetables or extras you have on hand.
02 -
  • Don't skip the resting step after cooking the chicken, it keeps the juices inside instead of spilling all over your cutting board.
  • Warming the tortillas is essential, cold tortillas crack and tear when you try to roll them.
  • If your dressing feels too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water or extra lemon juice.
03 -
  • Make a double batch of the honey mustard dressing and keep it in the fridge, it lasts a week and tastes great on salads too.
  • If your chicken is uneven in thickness, pound it gently with a mallet so it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overfill the wraps or they'll be impossible to roll and eat without making a mess.
