Two wrap halves are placed on a white plate on a white marbled surface, showing their inside layers. The outer layer is a soft, light tan tortilla. Inside, the first layer is a creamy sauce mixed with small bits of red and green herbs. Next, there are thick pieces of white cheese or chicken. Then, there are bright green, fresh leafy vegetables that look crisp and leafy. In one half, slices of juicy red tomato are visible beneath the green leaves. Some sauce is dripping from one wrap onto the plate, adding a fresh and tasty look. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

  • Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze inside the wrap for a sweet tangy twist.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free wraps to suit dietary preferences.

Store any leftover wraps tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To serve later, enjoy cold or warm them briefly in a pan or microwave until heated through.

How to Serve

Inside, there are several distinct layers: a base spread of creamy, reddish sauce with visible bits of herbs, thick slices of white cooked chicken, bright red tomato chunks, fresh dark green leafy lettuce, and a thin slice of white cheese. The wraps are cut to reveal these layers clearly. Near the wraps, there is a small silver bowl filled with chunky sauce, and a few small red tomato wedges are scattered around.

FAQs

Can I make the mayonnaise mixture ahead of time?

Yes, the mayonnaise mixture can be prepared a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This helps the flavors meld together and makes assembly quicker.

What can I use instead of fresh mozzarella?

If fresh mozzarella isn’t available, you can substitute with shredded mozzarella or another mild melting cheese like provolone. Just keep in mind the texture and moisture content will differ slightly.

Ingredients

Scale

Mayonnaise Mixture

  • 6 tbsp. mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tbsp. chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp. finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp. chopped fresh oregano or 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 scallion, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, grated

Wrap Fillings

  • 4 (10″) flour wraps
  • 1 1/2 oz. packed baby spinach or arugula (about 1 1/2 cups), divided
  • 2 cups cooked chopped rotisserie chicken (about 8 oz.), divided
  • 4 oz. cherry tomatoes, quartered, divided
  • 4 oz. fresh mozzarella, sliced, divided

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mayonnaise mixture: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped fresh basil, sun-dried tomatoes, grated Parmesan, oregano, sliced scallion, and grated garlic. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed and form a flavorful spread.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay one flour wrap flat and spread one-quarter of the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges to prevent spilling when rolling.
  3. Add the fillings: On top of the spread, layer one-quarter of the baby spinach or arugula, half a cup of chopped rotisserie chicken, 1 ounce of quartered cherry tomatoes, and 1 ounce of sliced fresh mozzarella. Distribute ingredients evenly for balanced flavor in every bite.
  4. Roll the wrap: Fold in the sides of the wrap to seal the filling, then tightly roll the bottom edge away from you towards the top, keeping the sides tucked in to form a burrito-like shape. This prevents the filling from falling out.
  5. Repeat assembly for remaining wraps: Follow steps 2 through 4 for each of the remaining wraps with the remaining ingredients.
  6. Serve: Slice each filled wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil for later consumption. These wraps are delicious served cold or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor; dried oregano can be substituted if fresh is unavailable.
  • Feel free to swap baby spinach for arugula for a peppery bite.
  • To add a little extra tang, drizzle balsamic glaze inside the wrap before rolling.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute flour wraps with gluten-free tortillas.
  • These wraps are great for meal prep and can be stored wrapped in the fridge for up to 2 days.
