Remember those McWraps that disappeared off the menu way too soon? Same.
This Homemade Chicken McWrap brings that fresh, cool crunch and juicy chicken combo back — but with a clean, high-protein twist that’ll leave you feeling energized, not sluggish.

Wrapped in a soft tortilla, loaded with crisp veggies, grilled (or air-fried) chicken, and a creamy yogurt-based sauce — this is healthy fast food at home at its best. Perfect for quick lunches, family dinners, or prepping ahead for the week.

 

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 large chicken breast, sliced into strips

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp paprika

  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the wrap:

  • 2 large whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas (10-inch)

  • 1 cup shredded lettuce

  • ½ cucumber, thinly sliced

  • 1 small tomato, diced

  • ¼ avocado, sliced

  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt or clean ranch dressing

  • Optional: shredded cheddar, hot sauce, lime juice

 

Instructions:

  1. Cook the chicken
    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken strips with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6–8 minutes, flipping once, until golden and cooked through.

  2. Warm the tortillas
    Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  3. Assemble the McWraps
    Spread Greek yogurt or ranch on the bottom of each wrap. Layer with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, avocado, and cooked chicken strips.

  4. Wrap it up
    Roll tightly like a burrito. Slice in half and enjoy immediately, or wrap in foil for a grab-and-go meal.

 

Sarah’s Tips:

  • Make it crispy: Use air-fried chicken tenders for that crispy McWrap vibe.

  • Dairy-free option: Swap in hummus or mashed avocado for the creamy base.

  • Meal prep tip: Store components separately and assemble fresh for best texture.

  • Add crunch: A few sliced almonds or shredded carrots make a great addition!

 

Flavorful Conclusion:

This Homemade Chicken McWrap is fresh, satisfying, and ridiculously easy — all the things we wish drive-thru meals could be. Whether you’re making lunch for the kids or meal prepping a week of clean eats, this wrap brings all the fast food flavor without the fast food regret.
