Print Recipe

Quick and easy air fryer wraps with crispy chicken and melty mozzarella cheese, ready in under 20 minutes. Perfect for a satisfying meal with a golden, crunchy exterior and juicy, cheesy inside.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips (about 1/2 inch wide)
  • 4 medium flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup (50g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning blend
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: crushed red pepper flakes, fresh basil leaves, pesto

Instructions

  1. Slice chicken breasts into thin strips and toss in a mixing bowl with garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  2. Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place chicken strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through.
  3. Lay out flour tortillas and divide cooked chicken evenly among them. Top each with shredded mozzarella cheese and optional fresh basil or pesto.
  4. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly like a burrito. Spray the outside lightly with olive oil spray.
  5. Place wraps seam-side down in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 5-6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy with melted cheese inside.
  6. Let wraps cool for a minute or two, then slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

Do not overfill the wraps to prevent leaking and ensure crispiness. Use olive oil spray instead of brushing for a lighter crisp. Flip wraps halfway through air frying for even cooking. Let wraps rest briefly after cooking to avoid hot cheese oozing out. For gluten-free, substitute flour tortillas with corn or gluten-free wraps, noting crispiness may vary. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 2 days and reheated in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes to restore crispiness.
