Notes
Don’t Overdress: Start with a little less vinaigrette than you think you’ll need; you can always add more, and you don’t want the filling to become soggy.
Chop Uniformly: Aim for roughly equal-sized pieces when chopping your vegetables and chicken. This ensures a balanced bite every time.
Freshest Herbs: Using fresh parsley makes a noticeable difference in the brightness of the salad. If possible, opt for fresh over dried for the best flavor.
Toast Your Tortillas: For added warmth and a slightly crisper texture, you can lightly toast your tortillas in a dry skillet or under the broiler for a few seconds before filling.
Chill Your Veggies: Ensuring your cucumber, tomatoes, and any other fresh vegetables are well-chilled before adding them will keep your wraps crisp and refreshing.
