  3. Add shredded chicken to the sauce and stir until well-coated.
Assembly and Cooking

  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Serving
  1. Let the wraps rest for a minute, garnish with parsley if desired, slice, and serve!

Notes

Customize your filling with spices, avoid overstuffing to maintain roll integrity, and for extra crispiness, spritz the outside with cooking spray before cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for a month.
