Chef's Note
For meal prep, keep the chicken mixture and vegetables separate from the tortillas and assemble just before eating to prevent soggy wraps. The chicken mixture can be made a day ahead and reheated gently before assembling.

Ingredients
1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium red bell pepper
2 medium carrots
1 medium cucumber
4 green onions
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
4 large flour tortillas
2 cups mixed salad greens
Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil to create the marinade.
- 2
Slice 1.5 pounds chicken breasts into thin strips and add to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly and let marinate for 15 minutes while preparing vegetables.
- 3
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Using tongs, remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade) and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
- 4
Add the reserved marinade to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the chicken. Remove from heat.
- 5
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast 2 tablespoons sesame seeds for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Set aside.
- 6
Warm 4 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side.
- 7
To assemble each wrap, place 1/2 cup mixed greens in the center of each tortilla, then top with a quarter of the chicken mixture.
- 8
Add sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrots, cucumber, and green onions evenly divided among the wraps.
- 9
Sprinkle each wrap with toasted sesame seeds, then fold the bottom up and roll tightly from one side to the other, tucking in the edges as you go.
- 10
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
