Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips

Here are a few of my best kitchen secrets to ensure your wraps turn out perfectly every time:

  • Make Ahead: Prep your chicken and toppings earlier in the day, so you can throw the wraps together in minutes for a speedy dinner.
  • Ingredient Swaps: Leftover turkey or shredded beef work beautifully in this recipe if you want to try something different.
  • Storage Suggestion: If you have leftovers (which is rare!), store the wrapped tortillas in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll be good for 2-3 days.
  • Slicing Trick: For easier handling, slice your wraps diagonally; it makes them easier to hold and eat!
