Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Tongs
  • Knife & cutting board (if prepping chicken)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded or chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or sour cream optional for creaminess
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions
 

Prepare the Filling:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine cooked chicken, shredded cheese, mayonnaise or sour cream (if using), garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Assemble the Wraps:

  • Lay out tortillas. Spoon the chicken-cheese mixture into the center of each tortilla and wrap tightly like a burrito—fold in the sides, then roll from bottom to top.

Preheat the Air Fryer:

  • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes.

Cook the Wraps:

  • Lightly spray each wrap with olive oil. Place 2–4 wraps in the air fryer basket (depending on size), seam side down. Air fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.

Serve:

  • Let cool for 2 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch, salsa, or spicy mayo.

Notes

Serving Tip:

Serve with a side salad, chips, or roasted veggies for a balanced, satisfying meal.
