Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

  • Cooked chicken breast or rotisserie chicken (sliced or shredded)

  • Ripe avocado (sliced or mashed)

  • Flour tortillas (large, for wrapping)

  • Romaine or spinach leaves

  • Cherry tomatoes (halved)

  • Red onion (thinly sliced)

  • Shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)

  • Ranch, Caesar, or chipotle mayo (optional for extra flavor)

  • Salt and pepper

  • Lime juice (to keep the avocado fresh)

Directions

  1. I lay out the tortilla and spread mashed avocado over the center (or layer avocado slices).

  2. I top it with cooked chicken, a handful of greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cheese.

  3. I drizzle with my dressing of choice, season lightly with salt and pepper, and add a squeeze of lime juice.

  4. I fold in the sides, roll it up tightly from the bottom, and slice it in half.

  5. I serve it immediately or wrap it tightly in foil for a meal on the go.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes 2 wraps. It takes just 10–15 minutes to prep and assemble, making it perfect for a quick lunch or weeknight dinner.

Variations

Sometimes I add crispy bacon for a BLT-style version or swap in grilled shrimp for a lighter twist. I’ve also used hummus instead of avocado for a Mediterranean spin. If I want extra crunch, I throw in some sliced cucumber or shredded carrots.

storage/reheating

I eat this wrap fresh, but it can be prepped ahead and stored wrapped in foil or plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 1 day. I don’t recommend reheating—it’s best served cold or at room temperature.

FAQs

Can I use canned chicken?

Yes, I’ve used canned chicken in a pinch. I just drain it well and season it to boost the flavor.

What type of tortilla works best?

I like using large, soft flour tortillas or whole wheat wraps—they hold up well and roll easily without cracking.

How do I keep the wrap from getting soggy?

I layer the greens on the bottom to create a barrier and keep the avocado from soaking through. If making ahead, I keep wet ingredients like tomatoes separate until serving.

Can I make it low-carb?

Yes, I use low-carb or lettuce wraps as a substitute for the tortilla.

What sauces pair well with it?

I love ranch, chipotle mayo, Caesar dressing, or even a little honey mustard for something tangy and sweet.

This Quick & Easy Chicken Avocado Wrap is one of my favorite go-to meals when I want something healthy, satisfying, and fast. It’s packed with fresh ingredients, easy to adapt, and perfect for busy days when I don’t want to sacrifice flavor. Whether I’m enjoying it at home or packing it for work, this wrap always delivers.
