Chicken Crunchwrap

Yo Quiero homemade crunchwrap!

This homemade chicken crunchwrap is so easy, you will never go back to the fast food option! It’s cheesy, crunchy and savory.  Makes for a tasty treat you will want as a snack, lunch, dinner or all three!

Chicken Crunchwrap ingredients

Grill the chicken first.

In true GWD fashion, I used chicken thighs for this recipe.  This cut is fattier with more flavor than a breast.  That said, use the cut you prefer best.  Drizzle some olive oil on the chicken and season with Dad’s Taco seasoning.

Grilled Chicken thighs

Preheat the griddle to a medium heat.  If you do not have a griddle, a stove top will work just as well.  Once the oil on the flat top is heated up, place the seasoned chicken thighs on and sear 4minutes per side until the internal temp is at 175 degrees.  Remove the grilled chicken off the griddle and let it rest

Prep the stuffing.

I recommend using only a few simple veggie options for the chicken crunchwrap stuffing.  For this recipe I used, chopped up iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes and red onion.  

Also, you will need a burrito flour tortilla, a taco sized flour tortilla and a tostada.

Chopped veggies

Finally, make sure you have enough cheese.  I used 2 different cheese types.  A Mexican shredded blend and shredded mozzarella.  Feel free to play around with the cheese variety depending on which you like best.

Time to assemble the chicken crunchwrap!

Before you do anything, make sure to warm up your burrito tortilla. 

Begin with a handful of the chopped grilled chicken followed by a layer of cheese.  Drizzle some sour cream for creaminess and cover with a tostada.  Next add the veggies, season with more Dad’s Taco seasoning and cover with a taco tortilla. Finally, wrap it all up with the edges of the burrito tortilla.

Sealed crunchwrap

Take your fully assembled chicken crunchwrap back on the griddle with the seam down for it to seal.  After 1-2 minutes, flip it over for the final crunch on the top.

Finally, remove it off the griddle, slice it open dip in some salsa and enjoy!
