Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • small bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife
  • Tongs or spatula
  • Cheese grater (if using block cheese)

Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs or chicken breasts cut into strips
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

For the Honey Mustard Sauce

  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • Pinch of black pepper

For Assembly

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 8 slices bacon cooked until crispy
  • 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1 large Roma tomato diced
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1¼ cups freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 12 dill pickle chips optional

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and let rest for a few minutes.
  • While the chicken rests, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
  • Warm the tortillas for a few seconds in the microwave or in a dry skillet until soft and flexible.
  • Spread about 2 tablespoons of honey mustard sauce down the center of each tortilla.
  • Divide the warm chicken evenly among the tortillas and immediately sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top so it softens slightly.
  • Add the romaine lettuce, diced tomato, red onion, and dill pickle chips if using.
  • Place 2 slices of crispy bacon on each wrap and drizzle with an additional spoonful of honey mustard sauce.
  • Fold in the sides and roll tightly.
  • Place the wraps seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat and toast for 1 to 2 minutes per side until lightly golden and crisp.
  • Let the wraps rest for 1 minute before slicing in half and serving.

Notes

These Honey Mustard Chicken Bacon Wraps are simple to make, but a few small tips can help you achieve the best flavor and texture every time.

Use Freshly Cooked Chicken

Freshly cooked chicken creates the juiciest wraps and helps soften the cheese as you assemble them. Chicken thighs provide the most flavorful and tender results, while chicken breasts are a great leaner alternative.

Shred Your Own Cheese

Freshly shredded cheddar melts better and has a richer flavor than pre-shredded cheese. It also creates a creamier texture throughout the wrap.

Toast for Extra Flavor

Don't skip the final toasting step. A quick toast in a skillet creates a golden, crispy exterior that contrasts beautifully with the creamy honey mustard sauce and juicy filling.

Customize the Honey Mustard Sauce

The sauce can easily be adjusted to your taste. Add a little extra honey for a sweeter sauce or a bit more Dijon mustard if you prefer a stronger tangy flavor.

Keep the Wraps from Getting Soggy

Roma tomatoes are ideal because they contain less moisture than larger slicing tomatoes. If you're making these wraps ahead of time, store the sauce separately and add it just before serving.

Add Extra Crunch

Dill pickle chips, crispy fried onions, sliced cucumbers, or shredded cabbage all add wonderful texture and pair well with the sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce.

Perfect for Meal Prep

Cook the chicken and bacon ahead of time and prepare the honey mustard sauce in advance. Store everything separately and assemble fresh wraps throughout the week for quick lunches and dinners.

Make It Your Own

These wraps are easy to customize with avocado, pepper jack cheese, baby spinach, banana peppers, or even grilled chicken for a slightly different flavor profile. The honey mustard sauce pairs well with a variety of ingredients, making this recipe incredibly versatile.
