# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in 30 minutes flat, perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.
  • The honey mustard dressing is tangy, creamy, and just sweet enough to make every bite satisfying.
  • You can customize the fillings based on what's in your fridge, so nothing goes to waste.
  • It's hearty enough to keep you full without feeling heavy or greasy.
02 -
  • Don't skip resting the chicken after cooking, it keeps the juices inside instead of spilling out when you slice.
  • Warming the tortillas is non negotiable, cold tortillas crack and tear when you try to roll them.
  • If your dressing feels too thick, add a teaspoon of water or extra lemon juice to loosen it up.
  • Overstuffing the wrap makes it impossible to roll, so be generous but not greedy.
03 -
  • Double the dressing recipe, it's amazing on salads, roasted vegetables, and even as a dip for fries.
  • If you want extra crunch, toss in some shredded cabbage or thinly sliced bell peppers.
  • A quick sear on the tortilla after rolling gives it a crispy exterior that holds up even better.
  • Use a serrated knife to slice the wrap cleanly without squishing the fillings out the sides.
