How to Make Fresh Pesto Chicken Wraps with Bacon
- Cook your bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and crumble.
- Prepare the leftover chicken by shredding or slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
- Lay the tortillas flat and generously spread basil pesto over each tortilla.
- Layer on shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and optional shredded mozzarella cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Roll the tortilla around the fillings, tucking the sides in to secure the contents.
- Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easy handling.
- Serve the wraps immediately, optionally with lemon wedges on the side.
