Crispy Air Fryer Chicken, Ham & Cheese Wraps
This recipe is for one wrap, so you can easily scale it up to feed a crowd.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 6-8 minutes
Serves: 1 (per wrap)
Ingredients (per wrap):
· 1 large (10-inch) flour tortilla
· 2-3 slices of deli chicken (or about 1/4 cup shredded rotisserie chicken)
· 2-3 slices of deli ham
· 1/4 cup shredded cheese (a blend of cheddar and mozzarella works perfectly)
· Optional Add-ins:
· 1 teaspoon ranch dressing or honey mustard
· A few slices of pickles or jalapeños for a kick
· A handful of fresh spinach
Instructions:
- Warm the Tortilla: This is a key step for a pliable, non-cracking tortilla! Place the tortilla on a plate and microwave it for 10-15 seconds. Alternatively, you can warm it gently in a dry skillet.
- Assemble the Wrap: Lay the warm tortilla flat. On the lower third of the tortilla (closest to you), layer the ingredients:
· First, place the slices of ham.
· Next, add the slices of chicken.
· Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the meat.
· Add any optional ingredients (like a drizzle of ranch or a few pickles). - Fold it Tightly:
· Fold the Sides: Fold the left and right sides of the tortilla inward over the filling.
· Roll it Up: Starting from the bottom edge (the side with the filling), tightly roll the tortilla away from you, keeping the sides tucked in. Roll it as tightly as you can to prevent it from unraveling. - Air Fry:
· Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (190°C) for 2-3 minutes if your model recommends it.
· Place the wrap in the air fryer basket, seam-side down. This helps seal it shut.
· Lightly spray or brush the outside of the wrap with cooking spray or a tiny bit of oil. This is the secret to a super crispy, golden-brown shell.
· Air fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy all over. - Serve: Let it cool for a minute or two before slicing it in half diagonally. The inside will be piping hot and melty! Serve with a side of ranch, ketchup, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips for Perfect Wraps Every Time:
· Don’t Overfill: The number one mistake is overfilling. It will make the wrap difficult to roll and can cause it to burst open during cooking.
· Seam-Side Down is Key: Placing the wrap with the seam-side down in the air fryer uses gravity to keep it sealed as the cheese melts and acts as a glue.
· Spray for Crispiness: Don’t skip the light coating of oil. It makes the difference between a soft wrap and a crispy, taquito-like texture.
· Customize It: This is a perfect “clean out the fridge” recipe.
· Pizza Wrap: Use pepperoni, marinara sauce, and mozzarella.
· Turkey Club: Use turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and a little mayo.
· Buffalo Chicken: Toss the chicken in buffalo sauce before adding it to the wrap.
