Cooking steps
-
1
Preheat a grill pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat to replicate Wendy's fresh-grilled chicken texture. Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder.
-
2
Grill the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through (internal temp 165°F), achieving grill marks similar to Wendy's technique. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into long strips for even wrap distribution.
-
3
While chicken cooks, prepare the fillings: wash and hand-leaf romaine lettuce (Wendy's uses crisp, fresh lettuce) and slice Roma tomato thinly.
-
4
Lay out the flour tortillas and microwave for 15 seconds to warm and soften them, mimicking Wendy's fresh tortilla texture.
-
5
Assemble each wrap: Place a tortilla on a flat surface. For the Southwest wrap, spread 1 tbsp spicy mayo (mix 1 tbsp mayo with sriracha and pinch garlic powder). For Classic Ranch, spread 2 tbsp ranch. For Honey Mustard, spread 2 tbsp honey mustard. Top each with equal parts chicken strips, lettuce, tomato slices, and shredded cheddar.
-
6
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up. Place seam-side down. For a true Wendy's finish, toast the wraps in the (cleaned) pan for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly golden.
-
7
Serve with extra sauce for dipping. Enjoy each variety and their signature flavor: spicy kick (Southwest), cool creamy (Ranch), and tangy sweetness (Honey Mustard).
