Chicken Cranberry Pecan Wraps Recipe – Easy & Delicious Lunch


  • Author: Nora Winslow
  • Total Time: 13 minutes
  • Yield: 4 wraps

Description

A quick and flavorful wrap featuring sweet cranberries, tangy dressing, savory chicken, and crunchy pecans. Perfect for a satisfying lunch or meal prep.


Ingredients

  • Cooked chicken (chopped or shredded)
  • Dried cranberries
  • Toasted pecans
  • Greens (spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
  • Crumbled feta or goat cheese
  • Wraps or tortillas (whole wheat, flour, or spinach)
  • Balsamic vinaigrette dressing

Instructions

  1. Chop or shred the cooked chicken into small pieces.
  2. Toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken, cranberries, toasted pecans, crumbled feta or goat cheese, greens, and balsamic vinaigrette. Toss gently until well coated.
  4. Lay out a tortilla or wrap on a flat surface. Spoon a generous amount of filling into the center, leaving about an inch of space around the edges.
  5. Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll tightly from the bottom up. Secure with a toothpick or wrap in parchment paper if needed.
  6. Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in plastic wrap for later. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

[‘Use room temperature chicken for better flavor.’, ‘Don’t overfill the wraps to ensure neat rolling.’, ‘Toast the pecans for enhanced flavor and crunch.’, ‘Warm the wraps slightly for easier rolling.’, ‘Store filling separately from wraps for meal prep to avoid sogginess.’]
