Why I Love This Air Fryer Hot Honey Chicken Wrap

Why I Love This Air Fryer Hot Honey Chicken Wrap

Let’s talk about why I’m all about using the @tasteekitchenus Air Fryer for this recipe. It’s not your average air fryer. It’s got a unique meat probe that monitors the internal temperature of the chicken, ensuring it’s cooked perfectly every time. I can’t even tell you how juicy and tender the chicken comes out—it’s like magic! Plus, the air fryer gives the chicken that golden-brown, crispy coating while keeping it tender inside. A little cooking spray helps get that perfect crunch with way less oil than deep frying. You’ll feel like a pro chef in no time!

Ingredients you’ll need for this Crispy Chicken Wrap

For the Chicken:

  • Chicken breasts (butterflied in half for quicker cooking)
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • Eggs (whisked)
  • Panko breadcrumbs
  • Grated parmesan cheese
  • Paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme (for that crispy, flavorful coating)

For the Wrap:

  • Burrito-sized tortilla (big enough for all those crispy chicken strips)
  • Fresh spinach or mixed greens
  • A slice of cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
  • Hot honey (the real star of this wrap)

How to make my Air Fryer Hot Honey Crispy Chicken Wrap

1. Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees. Take your butterflied chicken (4 pieces total) and season well with kosher salt and pepper.
2. Make a dredging station by placing whisked eggs in one shallow bowl and then the panko and seasonings in the other. Line a sheet pan with foil.
3. Dip each chicken breast first into the egg, then into the seasoned panko, pressing on crumbs to adhere. Place onto a sheet pan.
4. Spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray then add chicken breasts in one layer (you might have to work in batches). Lightly spray the coated breasts with cooking spray then cook for 4 mins per side. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
4. Make wrap by laying your tortilla on a flat surface, then topping it with a handful of greens. Lay sliced chicken breast onto greens and drizzle well with hot honey before topping with cheese. Roll tightly by tucking ends first then rolling over.
5. Optional: place burrito back into the air fryer and spray lightly with cooking spray. Cook 2-3 minutes to crisp, then slice in half. Enjoy!

Savvy tips + tricks for the Perfect Wrap

  • Don’t Overcrowd the Air Fryer: Give each chicken piece enough room for the air to circulate, ensuring an even cook.
  • Use a Wire Rack for Even Cooking: If you’re making multiple wraps, use a wire rack to keep the chicken warm while you finish the rest, so it doesn’t get soggy.
  • Add Some Fresh Veggies: Want to add more crunch? Toss in some red onion, bell peppers, or even iceberg lettuce for extra freshness.
  • Make It a Meal: Got leftover chicken? Swap in some pre-cooked chicken for a faster meal. You can even add ranch or blue cheese dressing for a creamy twist.
  • Pick the Right Tortilla: Make sure to use a large burrito-sized tortilla to hold everything without tearing.

FAQs

Yes! Chicken thighs will work just as well if you prefer a juicier, more flavorful option. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the chicken pieces. Slice the chicken into thin strips for quicker cooking, and it will stay tender on the inside while getting crispy on the outside.

Yes! If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the chicken in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, shallow fry the breaded chicken in a large skillet with olive oil over medium heat for extra crispy chicken. Just be sure to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

If hot honey isn’t your thing, try mixing honey with a bit of your favorite hot sauce or sriracha. You could also use honey mustard for a tangy twist. For even more flavor, drizzle the wrap with a bit of crispy bacon crumbles or hardwood-smoked bacon for a savory addition.

Absolutely! You can prep the chicken and wrap ingredients ahead of time, store them separately in airtight containers, and assemble the wraps when you’re ready to eat. The chicken will stay fresh for up to 3 days in the fridge. Leftover chicken breasts from a previous meal are a great option for these wraps too.

Yes! To make this recipe gluten-free, simply swap out the panko breadcrumbs for a gluten-free variety. You can find gluten-free breading options at most grocery stores or make your own using simple ingredients like almond flour or rice crumbs.

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in the air fryer or oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to keep the chicken crispy. If you’re using leftover rice or other sides, be sure to store those separately to maintain their freshness.

Definitely! If you’re short on time, feel free to use rotisserie chicken or any leftover cooked chicken. Just shred or slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and toss them in hot honey before wrapping them up with fresh lettuce and crunchy veggies. This is an easy recipe that makes for a quick lunch or dinner.

These wraps are great on their own, but you can serve them with a choice of side like potato chips, French fries, or even a fresh salad with crunchy lettuce, bell pepper, and green onions. You could also serve them alongside a creamy dressing for dipping or a side of crispy chicken tenders for an extra protein-packed meal.

This Air Fryer Hot Honey Crispy Chicken Wrap is everything you need for a quick, satisfying meal. Crispy chicken, fresh veggies, and that irresistible hot honey drizzle—it’s the perfect combo. Plus, it’s easy to make, even on your busiest days.
