Chef Tips:
- Not a fan of arugula? Swap it out for baby spinach, mixed greens, or shredded lettuce for a milder flavor.
- Make ahead: The pickled carrots, curry mayo, and chicken salad can all be made up to 2 days in advance. Store them in the fridge and assemble when ready to eat.
- Save Time! Use rotisserie chicken or leftover grilled chicken instead of cooking from scratch.
- Double it! Make extra chicken salad and enjoy it on lettuce cups, on toast, or over a grain bowl.
- Fun Additions: Add avocado, jalapeños, or crushed peanuts for extra flavor and texture.
- Family-style: Lay out all the ingredients and let everyone build their own wrap. It’s fun, customizable, and great for gatherings or busy weeknights.
