This Homemade McDonald’s Snack Wrap brings all the flavor and nostalgia of the original — but with clean, real ingredients and no drive-thru guilt.
It’s fast, easy, and perfect for lunch, dinner, or a post-workout high-protein snack.
Ingredients:
For the crispy chicken:
-
1 lb chicken tenders or breasts, sliced into strips
-
½ cup almond flour or whole wheat breadcrumbs
-
1 tbsp arrowroot powder or cornstarch
-
½ tsp paprika
-
½ tsp garlic powder
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
1 egg, beaten
-
1 tbsp avocado oil (for pan-frying)
For the wraps:
-
4 whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas
-
1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
-
½ cup shredded cheddar or dairy-free cheese
-
¼ cup avocado oil mayo or Greek yogurt
-
1 tsp Dijon mustard or lemon juice
-
Optional: chopped pickles or hot sauce
Instructions:
-
Bread the chicken
In one bowl, whisk the egg. In another, combine almond flour, arrowroot, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dip chicken into egg, then dredge in the dry mixture. -
Cook the chicken
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken strips for 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Air fryer option: 390°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway. -
Make the sauce
Mix mayo (or yogurt) with Dijon mustard and a splash of lemon juice. Add chopped pickles or hot sauce if you want a flavor kick. -
Assemble the wraps
Warm tortillas briefly to soften. Lay down shredded lettuce, crispy chicken, a sprinkle of cheese, and a drizzle of sauce. Wrap it up burrito-style or fold like the classic snack wrap. -
Serve and enjoy
Serve immediately or wrap in foil for an on-the-go lunch.
Sarah’s Tips:
-
Make it dairy-free: Use a vegan cheese and plant-based yogurt.
-
Add veggies: Sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, or shredded carrots work great.
-
Low-carb version: Use a lettuce wrap or grain-free tortilla.
-
Prep ahead: Cook a batch of chicken and keep it in the fridge for quick wraps all week.
