 Ingredients

For the Chicken

2 medium chicken breasts, cooked & shredded (or use rotisserie chicken)

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp chili powder

½ tsp paprika

½ tsp cumin

½ tsp garlic powder

Salt & black pepper, to taste

2 tbsp BBQ sauce or salsa (optional, for moisture)

For the Wraps

4 large (10–12 inch) flour tortillas

1 ½ cups shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

1 cup crushed Nacho Cheese Doritos

1 cup shredded lettuce

½ cup diced tomatoes

¼ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)

¼ cup guacamole

Instructions

Prepare the chicken

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Add shredded chicken with chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Stir in BBQ sauce or salsa for moisture. Heat until warmed through.

Assemble the crunch wraps

Place a tortilla on a flat surface.

Add a layer of cheese in the center, followed by chicken, crushed Doritos, lettuce, and tomatoes.

Dollop sour cream (and guacamole if using).

Sprinkle with more cheese to help seal.

Fold the tortilla

Fold the edges inward, overlapping in a circular pattern to fully enclose the filling.

Cook the wraps

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

Place wrap seam‑side down and cook 2–3 minutes until golden brown.

Flip carefully and cook another 2 minutes until crisp and heated through.

Serve

Slice in half and enjoy warm, with extra Doritos on the side if you like.

Notes & Tips

Spicy kick: Add jalapenos or hot sauce inside.

Protein swap: Use ground beef, turkey, or black beans instead of chicken.

Make it extra cheesy: Spread a thin layer of queso inside before adding fillings.

Meal prep tip: Cook chicken ahead and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Q: Can I bake instead of pan‑searing?
Yes — bake at 200°C (400°F) for 10 minutes per side until crispy.

Q: Can I use smaller tortillas?
You can, but fillings may spill out. Stick with 10–12 inch tortillas if possible.

Q: Do they reheat well?
Best eaten fresh, but you can reheat in an air fryer at 180°C (360°F) for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
