Main Ingredients- 2 Tortillas
- 4 pieces Chicken Tenders (store-bought frozen or homemade)
- 2 slices Cheddar Cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the vegetables. Julienne the cabbage, onion, and bell pepper as thinly as possible. Remove the seeds from the tomato and dice it finely. Thinly sliced vegetables ensure a better texture when wrapped.
Step 2
If you are sensitive to pungent flavors, soak the julienned onion in cold water for about 10 minutes. This mellows out the sharpness, making it much milder. After soaking, drain the water thoroughly.
Step 3
Prepare the chicken tenders. Using store-bought frozen chicken tenders makes this recipe incredibly convenient! If you prefer to make your own, use chicken tenderloins or breast meat, cut into bite-sized pieces, coated, and fried.
Step 4
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is preheated, add the chicken tenders and fry until golden brown and crispy. It’s crucial to ensure the inside is cooked through and the outside is perfectly crisp.
Step 5
While the chicken tenders are frying, let’s make the special honey mustard sauce. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 tablespoon of mustard (whole grain or Dijon), and a pinch of chopped parsley. Mix well. This sauce has a wonderfully sweet and tangy flavor.
Step 6
Prepare the tortillas. Gently warm the tortillas by heating them briefly in a pan or microwaving them for about 10 seconds until pliable. Spread 1 tablespoon of whole grain mustard evenly over each tortilla. This adds an extra layer of flavor.
Step 7
Place one slice of cheddar cheese over the whole grain mustard on each tortilla. Generously pile about half of your prepared vegetables (cabbage, onion, tomato, bell pepper) on top. Loading up on veggies makes for a delightful crunch. Finally, drizzle your desired amount of the homemade honey mustard sauce over the vegetables.
Step 8
Now, place 2 pieces of the crispy fried chicken tenders on top of the vegetable mixture.
Step 9
Finally, carefully roll up the tortillas tightly to enclose the filling, preventing it from spilling out. Wrapping them in parchment paper or plastic wrap will help maintain their shape and make them easier to eat. Slice in half and enjoy your delicious creation!
