Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Grilled chicken breast, sliced
Large flour tortillas or wraps
Sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained and sliced)
Fresh spinach or arugula
Roasted red peppers (optional)
Mozzarella or provolone cheese, sliced
Creamy garlic spread or mayonnaise
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Dried Italian herbs or fresh basil leaves

Directions

I start by slicing the grilled chicken and warming it slightly in a skillet or microwave if I prefer it warm.
I spread a generous layer of garlic spread or mayonnaise on each tortilla.
I layer the wrap with fresh greens, chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and cheese.
I sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs to boost the flavor.
I fold in the sides and roll the wrap tightly.
I grill it in a pan with a little olive oil or use a panini press until golden and the cheese is melted, or I serve it as-is for a cold version.
I slice the wrap in half and serve with chips, salad, or fruit for a complete meal.

Servings and timing

Makes 2 large wraps.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes (if grilling)
Total time: 15 minutes

Variations

I swap the chicken for grilled turkey, tofu, or chickpeas for a vegetarian version.
I use hummus or pesto instead of garlic spread for a different flavor profile.
I add sliced avocado or cucumbers for freshness.
I make it low-carb by using a lettuce wrap or low-carb tortilla.

storage/reheating

I wrap leftovers tightly in foil or parchment and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days. For reheating, I warm the wrap in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and crispy. If I’m taking it on the go, I pack it cold and keep it in a cooler or lunch bag.

FAQs

Can I use leftover chicken?

Yes, I often use rotisserie chicken or leftovers from dinner—it makes prep even faster.

What’s the best spread for this wrap?

I love using a creamy garlic spread, but mayo, pesto, or herbed cream cheese all work great.

Can I make it ahead for lunch?

Absolutely. I make the wrap the night before, wrap it tightly, and store it in the fridge. I keep wet ingredients (like tomatoes) limited to avoid sogginess.

Is this wrap good cold?

Yes! I enjoy it warm or cold, depending on my mood. It’s flavorful enough to hold up without reheating.

What kind of tortilla works best?

I use a large, soft flour tortilla—it wraps easily without tearing and holds everything together.

Conclusion

Tuscan Chicken Wraps are a flavorful, satisfying option when I want something quick, portable, and packed with Italian-inspired ingredients. Whether I’m meal prepping, packing lunch, or throwing together a fast dinner, this wrap never fails to hit the spot.
