# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat a skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil.
02 - Season chicken tenders with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook in the skillet for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes, then slice if desired.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
04 - Warm the tortillas for a few seconds in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable and easier to fold.
05 - Lay each tortilla flat and spread a generous spoonful of honey-mustard dressing down the center. Top with lettuce, chicken, tomato, and red onion.
06 - Drizzle additional honey-mustard dressing over the fillings.
07 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap. Slice in half and serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together faster than waiting in a takeout line, and tastes fresher every time.
  • The honey mustard dressing has just enough tang and sweetness to make every bite satisfying without being cloying.
  • You can prep the chicken and dressing ahead, then assemble wraps in under five minutes when hunger strikes.
02 -
  • Don't skip resting the chicken after cooking, it keeps the juices inside instead of running all over your cutting board.
  • Warm your tortillas or they'll crack when you try to roll them, a few seconds makes all the difference.
  • Add the dressing to the wrap just before rolling, not an hour ahead, or the lettuce will wilt and the tortilla will get soggy.
03 -
  • Make a double batch of the honey mustard dressing and keep it in the fridge, it's great on salads, sandwiches, and as a dip for veggies.
  • If your tortillas are stale or a little dry, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 10 seconds to bring them back to life.
  • Slice the chicken while it's still slightly warm, it's easier to cut and the heat helps the dressing soak in a bit.
