Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast half (6 to 8 ounces) 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise 1/2 shallot, minced (optional) 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves 2 spinach-flavored sandwich wraps (12-inch) 6 thin slices Havarti cheese (about 2 ounces total) 1 cup baby spinach, washed and dried

Directions

In a small skillet with a lid, bring 1 inch salted water to a boil. Add chicken. Cover, and cook over medium-low heat, 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and let steam, still covered, until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes; remove chicken. When cool enough to handle, thinly slice crosswise.

While chicken is cooking, stir together mayonnaise, shallot (if using), mustard, vinegar, and thyme in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add chicken, and toss to coat.

Lay sandwich wraps on a work surface. Leaving a 1-inch border all around, layer with cheese, spinach, then chicken mixture.

Fold in sides by about 1 inch, then roll up tightly from the bottom. Wrap each tightly in plastic or waxed paper. Refrigerate up to 1 day.

Cook’s Notes Minced shallot adds crunch and sharpness to the dressing.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/12/2015   I felt the dijon was over powering. I was making test batches for party sandwiches. I doubled the thyme, and used one-fourth the dijon, and a little onion powder in the dressing. This improved the chicken salad. I used shallots. I used dill Havarti and plain, both were good.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/02/2011   Pretty good chicken salad wrap, Havarti adds a creaminess that provolone and cheddar do not have. That said, the dressing for the chicken salad is very thyme-forward, I might add less thyme next time. Shallot thyme = you may need a breathmint afterward! I would recommend pairing this wrap with a salad that has milder, fresh flavors (maybe a lemony vinaigrette?) I made the Minestrone Salad recipe to have as a side, and the balsamic was too strong and clashed with the thyme chicken.
