Ingredients
Scale
Egg White Wrap
- 6 large Egg Whites
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch (can substitute with arrowroot powder)
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt (can substitute with sea salt)
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil (can substitute with olive oil)
Fillings & Condiments
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise (can substitute with Greek yogurt)
- 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 (can substitute with shredded turkey or plant-based chicken)
- 3 slices Cooked Bacon (turkey bacon or vegan alternative optional)
- 1 medium Ripe Tomato (or any seasonal tomato or roasted red pepper)
Instructions
- Preparation: Gather and prepare all ingredients as listed, ensuring the chicken tenders and bacon are cooked and ready to use.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the egg whites, cornstarch, kosher salt, xanthan gum (if using), and half of the vegetable oil. Whisk these together until the mixture is smooth and well blended, with no lumps.
- Cook Wraps: Heat the remaining vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour a portion of the egg white mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly to form a thin layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set, then carefully flip the wrap and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until it is lightly golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Repeat for remaining batter.
- Assemble Wraps: Spread a generous layer of mayonnaise and pesto on each cooked egg white wrap. Layer with shredded chicken tenders, crispy bacon slices, fresh romaine lettuce, creamy sliced avocado, and juicy tomato slices to build a flavorful filling.
- Roll Wraps: Carefully roll or fold each wrap tightly to enclose all the ingredients inside, creating a compact and easy-to-eat wrap.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy your Chicken Club Egg White Wraps immediately while fresh, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
Notes
- Xanthan gum is optional but helps make the wraps less brittle and more pliable.

- Cook chicken and bacon ahead of time for faster assembly.
- Use a nonstick skillet to ensure easy cooking and flipping of the egg wraps.
- Wraps are best eaten fresh but can be refrigerated in airtight containers for short-term storage.
