  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: This is essential for food safety. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables add color, texture, and nutrients to the wrap. You can use any vegetables you like, but some good options include lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers.
