Think crispy chicken tenders and the iconic honey mustard dip from McDonalds. This honey mustard chicken wrap checks all the boxes, and more! If you liked my honey mustard sheet pan meal, this one's for you.
Wraps are the easiest go-to lunch and they are seriously so good. I love them because they keep well and can be meal prepped, making them a good work lunch like I described here. This honey mustard wrap is a delicious balanced option, with tons of protein, fibre and fresh veggies. The honey mustard sauce is so simple, you'll want to drizzle it on everything!
Ingredients
Wraps:
- Air fryer chicken tenders
- Coleslaw
- Lettuce
- Pickles
- Radishes
- Cherry tomatoes
- Whole wheat tortillas
- Cheddar cheese
Honey mustard sauce:
- Greek yogurt
- Mayonnaise
- Dijon mustard
- Honey
- White vinegar
Instructions
Make your air fryer chicken tenders following this recipe. Do not add the buffalo hot sauce after cooking, simply follow the recipe up until you remove the chicken tenders from the air fryer.
Make your honey mustard sauce by whisking together all sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
In a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix, shredded lettuce, pickles, radishes and cherry tomatoes.
Drizzle with about ¾ of the honey mustard sauce. Save some for drizzling at the end of making your wrap.
To the center of each tortilla, add ½ of the coleslaw mixture, top with 2 chicken strips, sprinkle with ¼ cup of cheese and finish with a drizzle of the honey mustard sauce.
Wrap up your tortillas by folding in the sides, bringing the bottom flap up and continuing to roll gently pressing down to ensure the wrap is tight!
Substitutions and Variations
To make gluten-free: Use a gluten-free tortilla and gluten-free chicken tenders.
To make dairy-free: Skip the Greek yogurt and just use mayo. Omit the cheese or use your favourite dairy-free cheese.
Missing an ingredient? Try these:
- Greek yogurt/Mayonnaise: I always like using both Greek yogurt and mayonnaise to create a creamy consistency that has both protein and fats. However, feel free to use just mayonnaise or just yogurt depending on your preference.
- Veggies: If you don't like cherry tomatoes or radishes, leave them out! Use whatever mix-ins you like with the coleslaw mix.
Equipment
Storage
These honey mustard chicken wraps are best eaten right after making them, or within a few hours if you want to bring them for lunch. Otherwise, the tortilla will start to get soggy if left for too long. If you are looking for a way to make them ahead of time, I recommend making the filling ahead of time (can keep in the fridge for up to 4 days) and then adding it to a tortilla with any other add-ins.
Top Tip
Save some honey mustard dressing for drizzling on your wrap after adding the fillings, for an extra level of flavour! It's also great for dipping your veggies in.
Frequently Asked Questions

I made a vegetarian version of this using tofu instead of chicken and it was delicious! My boyfriend and I both loved them and I will definitely be making them again!
