# What You'll Need:

→ Chicken

01 - 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - Salt and black pepper to taste

→ Honey Sriracha Sauce

04 - 3 tablespoons honey
05 - 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
06 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
07 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
08 - 1 clove garlic, minced

→ Wraps and Vegetables

09 - 4 large flour tortillas
10 - 1 cup shredded lettuce
11 - 1 medium carrot, julienned
12 - 0.5 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
13 - 0.25 cup thinly sliced red onion
14 - 0.25 cup mayonnaise, optional
15 - Fresh cilantro leaves, optional

# How-To Steps:

01 - In a small mixing bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and minced garlic until fully combined. Set aside.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken strips generously with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
03 - Reduce heat to low. Pour the honey sriracha sauce over the cooked chicken and toss to coat evenly. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens and glazes the chicken. Remove from heat.
04 - Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat or microwave for 30 seconds until soft and pliable.
05 - Lay each tortilla flat. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise in the center if desired. Layer with shredded lettuce, julienned carrot, sliced bell pepper, red onion, and glazed chicken. Top with fresh cilantro if desired.
06 - Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from bottom to top. Slice in half if preferred. Serve immediately while warm.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The sauce clings to every bite without dripping all over your hands or lap.
  • It comes together faster than waiting in a drive-through line, and tastes about ten times better.
  • You can dial the heat up or down without losing that addictive sweet-spicy balance.
  • Leftovers actually get better after a night in the fridge when the flavors soak in.
02 -
  • If you add the sauce while the heat is too high, it will burn and turn bitter before it glazes, so always reduce to low first.
  • Overfilling the wraps makes them impossible to roll without everything spilling out the sides, less is genuinely more here.
  • Let the chicken rest for a minute after glazing so the sauce sets slightly, otherwise it all slides off when you try to wrap it.
03 -
  • Toast the tortillas lightly before assembling so they have a bit of chew and don't turn into a soggy mess after ten minutes.
  • Slice the chicken strips against the grain before cooking, they'll be way more tender and easier to bite through in the wrap.
  • Keep a damp towel over the warm tortillas while you assemble so they stay pliable and don't dry out between wraps.
