This hearty rotisserie chicken wrap is an easy and delicious blend of tender chicken, crispy bacon, and tangy honey mustard! It is the perfect combination of flavors for a quick lunch or easy dinner.
Why You’ll Love This Honey Mustard Chicken Wrap Recipe:
- Quick and easy: With hardly any prep work, you can whip up this honey mustard wrap and have a ready-to-eat meal in no time.
- Flexible: You can make this honey mustard chicken wrap recipe with any kind of cooked chicken, and most of the ingredients can freely be swapped out based on what you have in the fridge.
- Packed with flavor: The combination of juicy chicken, smoky bacon, and creamy avocado tied together with honey mustard puts an end to boring lunches and brings variety to light dinners.
Let's get started! Here's what you'll need:
Ingredients:
Tortilla - Choose your favorite type, whether you prefer classic flour tortillas, whole wheat, or gluten-free tortillas. You can even use lettuce wraps!
Cooked Chicken - I like to use rotisserie chicken breasts here because they're easy and budget-friendly, but deli slices are also super convenient. If you want extra crunch, crispy chicken tenders are another tasty option.
Honey Mustard - A honey mustard wrap is incomplete without a creamy honey mustard sauce. I use store-bought dressing for convenience, but you can also whip up your a homemade sauce for chicken wraps with the simple steps I include in the recipe notes.
Bacon - Crispy and irresistible, bacon brings a delicious crunch to every bite. To save time, I recommend using leftover or pre-cooked bacon.
Avocado - I believe avocado makes almost everything better, but feel free to leave it out if you disagree or substitute it with another vegetable, such as sliced cucumbers or tomatoes.
Cheese - I use provolone because the flavor isn't overpowering, but you can use Swiss cheese, cheddar cheese, colby jack, or whatever your favorite sandwich slice may be.
Equipment:
Knife & Cutting Board - The only 2 tools we need for this simple recipe. If you're out of bacon and committed, you may also want a baking sheet and parchment paper – baking it at 400°F until crisp is how I batch bacon to keep on hand for situations like these.
How to make this delicious wrap:
Layer the ingredients.
Slice the ingredients as necessary, then lay the tortilla on a flat surface. Add the chicken, cheese, avocado slices, and the bacon strip on the wrap, stacking them on top of one another. For easiest rolling, stack the fillings a bit off center of the tortilla.
Add the honey mustard.
Add the honey mustard dressing to the wrap, spreading it on the tortilla above the other ingredients. Be sure to leave ½ to 1 inch of space around the edge of the wrap, as it will press towards the edge when you go to roll. The mustard in the wrap shown above almost comes out when I roll it up, so you’ll want to leave at least this much space, if not more.
Roll the wrap.
Starting with the edge closest to the fillings, roll the wrap until the filling is covered, fold the ends over, then continue to roll until the wrap is tight. Slice it in half carefully if eating right away, or wrap it in plastic wrap to keep it secure if saving it for later.
Serve and enjoy!
Recipe Success Tips
- Place the ingredients toward the top third of the tortilla. This will make wrapping easier and keep the ingredients in place. Placing them in the middle feels more intuitive but can result in the fillings falling out the ends since the tortilla is longer in the center.
- Add additional fillings. For crunch, add cucumber, fresh red bell pepper, or butter lettuce. Sliced roasted red peppers or fresh tomatoes can also be added for a fresh and sweet finish. Feel free to experiment in the kitchen and make this shredded chicken wrap your own!
- Homemade chicken wrap sauce: If you don’t have honey mustard on hand, here’s an easy DIY substitute: In a small bowl, add equal parts honey and either yellow mustard or dijon mustard to a creamy base, like plain Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, or cream cheese. Then, add a dash of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to taste.

FAQs
While it does dirty another bowl, you can toss your chicken in the dressing to coat it, which will help it cling to the chicken and spread out less in the actual wrap.
Yes, you can make this beforehand, but the particular instructions vary. Making it in the morning for lunch or an afternoon party? Make it as directed. Making it for meal prep and doing a batch for the week? The honey mustard will likely make the tortilla soggy, so I recommend skipping the dressing and using it as a dipping sauce instead of including it directly in the wrap.
Of course! While honey mustard brings a unique flavor profile to these rotisserie chicken wraps, feel free to experiment with other sauces like ranch, barbecue, or spicy mayo to suit your taste.
