Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 rotisserie chicken breasts, shredded (about 3 cups)
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped iceberg lettuce
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped Black Forest ham (about 2.5 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped provolone cheese (about 2.5 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced pepperoni (about 2.5 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced soppressata (about 2.5 oz.)
  • 1/3 cup coarsely chopped banana peppers or peperoncini
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped red onion

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Wraps

  • 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Salad: In a large bowl, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken, chopped iceberg lettuce, Black Forest ham, provolone cheese, pepperoni, soppressata, banana peppers, and red onion. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, and Italian seasoning until smooth and well combined. This dressing will add tangy and aromatic flavors to the salad.
  3. Toss the Salad with Dressing: Pour the prepared dressing over the chicken mixture. Toss everything together gently but thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Place one heaping cup of the chicken salad onto the center of each flour tortilla. Fold in the left and right sides of the tortilla, then fold the end closest to you over the filling. Tightly roll the bottom end upwards, keeping the sides tucked in, to form a burrito-style wrap.
  5. Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in foil or plastic wrap for an easy grab-and-go meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute the Black Forest ham and soppressata with other deli meats like salami or turkey if preferred.
  • For a lighter option, swap mayonnaise for Greek yogurt.
  • If you like extra heat, add sliced jalapenos or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes.
  • This recipe is perfect for meal prep and can be stored wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas to make this recipe gluten-free.
