These crispy and melty Air Fryer Chicken Ham and Cheese Wraps are the ultimate quick meal. Whether it’s a busy weeknight or a casual snack, these wraps bring together savory ham, creamy Swiss cheese, and just the right touch of Dijon mustard. They are perfect for anyone who loves warm, golden handheld treats with minimal fuss.

I first tried this recipe when I wanted something fast but hearty on a hectic day. My family loved it so much that it became an instant regular on our menu.

Ingredients

  • Four 8-inch tortillas: Choose soft and pliable tortillas for easy rolling
  • Eight slices of Black Forest Chicken ham: Offers smoky, savory flavor
  • Two tablespoons mayonnaise: Adds creaminess and helps bind the filling
  • Four teaspoons Dijon mustard: Brings a subtle tangy twist
  • One tablespoon melted butter: Enhances the wraps with a golden, crispy finish
  • Four slices of Swiss cheese: A creamy, melty layer that ties everything together

Step-by-Step Instructions

Warm the Tortillas:
Place tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave for 20-30 seconds until soft and warm.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Set the air fryer temperature to 380 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes.
Assemble the Wraps:
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise and Dijon mustard onto each tortilla. Add two slices of Chicken ham and one slice of Swiss cheese to each tortilla. Roll them up tightly like burritos by folding in the sides and rolling them securely.
Brush with Butter:
Lightly brush the tops of the wraps with melted butter to ensure a golden and crispy finish while cooking.
Cook in the Air Fryer:
Place the wraps seam-side down in the preheated air fryer. Cook for 5 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure even cooking. Remove once golden brown.
Oven Option:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Follow the same steps to assemble the wraps. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the wraps to cool slightly before cutting them in half or diagonally for easy serving. Enjoy your crispy, melty creation!

I love using Swiss cheese in this recipe. Its nutty flavor melts beautifully, adding richness to every bite. My kids always request extra cheese for an even gooier center.

Storage Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the air fryer for a crispy exterior or in the microwave for a softer texture.

Ingredient Substitutions

Feel free to swap Swiss cheese with provolone or cheddar for a unique touch. Smoked turkey can be used in place of Chicken ham for a leaner option. If you're out of Dijon mustard, yellow mustard works just fine.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with a simple green salad or a cup of soup for a balanced meal. Make them bite-sized for appetizers at your next gathering, served with a side of honey mustard or ranch dip.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Can I use different types of cheese in these wraps?

Absolutely! While the recipe calls for Swiss cheese, you can substitute with cheddar, pepper jack, provolone, or any melting cheese you prefer. Each will provide a different flavor profile to complement the chicken ham.

→ How do I prevent the wraps from unrolling during cooking?

Place the wraps seam-side down in the air fryer or on the baking sheet. The weight of the wrap and the melting cheese inside will help seal it. You can also secure them with toothpicks before cooking if needed.

→ Can I prepare these wraps ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the wraps up to a day ahead and store them covered in the refrigerator. Add the melted butter just before cooking. You might need to add an extra minute to the cooking time if cooking from cold.

→ What can I serve with these chicken ham and cheese wraps?

These wraps pair well with a simple green salad, fresh fruit, potato chips, or a small bowl of soup. For dipping, consider offering ranch dressing, honey mustard, or a spicy aioli on the side.

→ Can I add vegetables to these wraps?

Definitely! Consider adding thinly sliced tomatoes, spinach leaves, avocado, or roasted red peppers. Just be mindful not to overstuff, as this might cause difficulty in rolling and sealing the wraps.

→ How do I store and reheat leftover wraps?

Store cooled leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 2-3 minutes or in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes until warmed through and crispy again.
