Ingredients
Scale
Egg White Wrap:
- 6 large Egg Whites (or egg substitutes for a vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch (can substitute arrowroot powder)
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt (sea salt can be used)
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (optional, for flexibility)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil (or olive oil for a healthier choice)
Wrap Filling:
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
- 2 tablespoons Pesto (any herb-based sauce as substitute)
- 1 cup Romaine Lettuce (or any leafy greens)
- 1 medium Avocado (or sliced cucumbers for lower calories)
- 1 cup Cooked Chicken Tenders (or shredded turkey or plant-based chicken)
- 3 slices Cooked Bacon (or turkey bacon or vegan alternative)
- 1 medium Ripe Tomato (or seasonal tomato or roasted red pepper)
Instructions
- Preparation: Gather all your ingredients and ensure the chicken tenders and bacon are cooked. Tear or slice the bacon and shred the chicken for easier assembly later.
- Mix the egg white batter: In a bowl, combine the egg whites, cornstarch, kosher salt, xanthan gum (if using), and half of the vegetable oil. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, forming the base for the egg white wraps.
- Cook the egg white wraps: Heat the remaining oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in a portion of the egg white mixture, spreading it evenly to form a thin round. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until the edges start to set and the surface looks almost cooked. Carefully flip the wrap and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until lightly golden. Remove the wrap from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter to make more wraps.
- Assemble the wrap: Lay each cooked egg white wrap flat. Spread a generous layer of mayonnaise followed by pesto to build flavor. Add a layer of shredded chicken tenders, then crispy bacon slices. Top with crunchy romaine lettuce, creamy avocado slices, and juicy tomato slices to complete the filling.
- Roll and serve: Carefully roll or fold the wrap tightly to encase all the ingredients inside. Serve immediately while fresh and flavorful, or store wrapped tightly in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
- Enjoy: Savor your protein-packed, flavorful Chicken Club Egg White Wrap as a healthy and satisfying lunch option.
Notes
- Xanthan gum is optional; skipping it may make the wraps a bit more brittle but still delicious.
- For a vegan version, use egg substitutes for the wraps and vegan bacon alternatives.
- Olive oil can be substituted for vegetable oil to boost the healthfulness of the wrap.
- Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite greens, sauces, or protein substitutions.
- These wraps are best consumed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
