Honey Sriracha Chicken Wrap (Printable Version)

Glazed chicken with sweet-spicy sauce, fresh vegetables, and soft tortillas for a satisfying meal.

# What You'll Need:

→ Chicken

01 - 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - Salt and black pepper to taste

→ Honey Sriracha Sauce

04 - 3 tablespoons honey
05 - 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
06 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
07 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
08 - 1 clove garlic, minced

→ Wraps and Vegetables

09 - 4 large flour tortillas
10 - 1 cup shredded lettuce
11 - 1 medium carrot, julienned
12 - 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
13 - 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
14 - 1/4 cup mayonnaise, optional
15 - Fresh cilantro leaves, optional

# How to Prepare:

01 - In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and minced garlic until fully combined.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken strips with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
03 - Reduce heat to low. Pour honey sriracha sauce over chicken and toss to coat evenly. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until sauce thickens and creates a glaze. Remove from heat.
04 - Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
05 - Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the center of each tortilla if using. Layer with lettuce, carrot, bell pepper, red onion, and glazed chicken. Top with fresh cilantro if desired.
06 - Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly. Slice in half if preferred and serve immediately.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The honey sriracha glaze clings to every bite of chicken, creating that perfect balance of sticky sweetness and throat-warming spice.
  • It's endlessly adaptable: swap the veggies, adjust the heat, or make it vegetarian without losing any of the flavor.
  • Everything cooks in one skillet and assembles in minutes, so cleanup is almost nonexistent.
  • The crunch of fresh vegetables against tender, saucy chicken makes every bite texturally satisfying.
02 -
  • Don't skip reducing the heat before adding the sauce, or the honey will scorch and turn bitter instead of caramelizing into that perfect glaze.
  • Let the chicken sit undisturbed for the first few minutes of cooking so it develops a nice golden crust before you flip it.
  • If your tortillas are cold or stiff, warming them is essential; otherwise, they'll crack when you try to roll them.
03 -
  • Use a meat thermometer to check that your chicken reaches 165°F internally, especially if your strips are thicker than usual.
  • For a charred, restaurant-style finish, crank the heat back up for the last 30 seconds after glazing and let the edges caramelize.
  • If your sauce seems too thick, add a teaspoon of water or extra rice vinegar to loosen it up before tossing with the chicken.
