The Sweet Chilli Chicken One – Grilled Ingredients Detailed Description
McDonald sweet chilli wrap’s chicken starts its journey as fresh, lean chicken breast meat, forming the foundation of the final product with around 57% by weight. Natural flavors are then introduced using salt, potato starch, and a touch of sweetness from brown sugar.
106g Chicken gives 100g final product. This contains less fats slightly higher in sugar than crispy wrap.
Ingredients include a clean chicken breast piece further processed with potato starch, salt, natural flavorings, and sugar.
The Sweet Chilli Sauce, adding a vibrant kick to various McDonald’s offerings, boasts a unique flavor profile.
Sweet and Tangy Base: Water forms the foundation, while sugar and glucose-fructose syrup provide sweetness. A sharp, tangy twist comes from spirit vinegar and citric acid.
Spicy Depths: Red chillies, the heart of the sauce’s heat, are present around 4% (though this might vary slightly). Garlic, either fresh or in puree form, adds a savory and pungent element. Dried chillies and dried red bell peppers contribute further depth and complexity to the spice profile.
Rounding Out the Flavor: Salt enhances the overall taste and acts as a preservative. Rapeseed oil adds a touch of richness, and natural paprika flavoring introduces a subtle smokiness. Thickeners (xanthan and guar gum) achieve the desired consistency, while potassium sorbate extends the shelf life.
Optional variations may include white wine vinegar for a touch of extra acidity and paprika extract for a visually appealing color.
Important to note
Individuals sensitive to spicy foods should be aware of the presence of chillies, with the heat level varying slightly depending on the specific recipe.
The large tortilla wrap used in various McDonald’s recipes is primarily made from wheat flour, forming the base and providing structure. Water keeps the wrap moist and helps bind the ingredients, while humectants like glycerol further enhance moisture retention and maintain a soft texture.
Wheat fiber adds dietary fiber content, and rapeseed oil contributes essential fat to the dough. Wholemeal wheat flour adds a slightly heartier texture and additional fiber.
Leavening agents like disodium diphosphate and sodium hydrogen carbonate allow the dough to rise and achieve a fluffy texture. An emulsifier (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids) helps combine all the ingredients and maintain a consistent mixture.
Stabilizers (carboxy methyl cellulose) contribute to the overall texture and stability of the wrap, while yeast plays a crucial role in the fermentation process that leavens the dough. Salt, of course, adds flavor and acts as a preservative. Finally, wheat starch thickens the dough and provides additional structure to the final wrap.
Important to note
Wheat flour, wheat fiber, and whole meal wheat flour all contain gluten and are highlighted as allergens.
While the ingredient list doesn’t explicitly mention sesame seeds, milk, barley, or rye, the disclaimer acknowledges the potential presence of trace amounts due to shared manufacturing equipment used for various buns and rolls.
Additionally, be aware that toasting equipment might come into contact with sesame seeds, introducing the possibility of trace amounts even if the wrap itself doesn’t contain them as an ingredient.
McDonald’s Mayonnaise is a creamy condiment made with water as the base. Rapeseed oil (accounting for 23.5%) provides a rich texture, while spirit vinegar adds a tangy element. Modified maize starch acts as a thickener, ensuring a smooth consistency.
Important Allergen Information
- Free-range egg yolk (3%): A key ingredient, but important to note for those with egg allergies.
- Mustard flour: Enhances the flavor profile, but be aware of this potential allergen.
Additional ingredients include sugar for a touch of sweetness, salt for taste, xanthan gum (a thickener), potassium sorbate (a preservative), and a touch of lemon juice concentrate for an extra layer of flavor.
100% fresh adds a delightful crisp to the bite giving it a refreshing feel.
100% Fresh and crisp lettuce adds a delightful textural contrast and a touch of coolness to the wrap. Typically, iceberg lettuce is used, but other varieties like romaine or even a mix of greens can be substituted according to personal preference. Lettuce is a good source of vitamins and fiber, making it a valuable addition to any meal.

Expert Review on McDonald’s The Sweet Chilli One – Grilled Wrap
Hey Folks! Isla Brown bites McDonald’s Sweet Chicken Grilled wrap this time and here’s what my thoughts on it.
Flavor
The wrap itself looked nice and decently wrapped. The first bite wasn’t what I was expecting. The chicken that was said grilled was bit dry. The sweet chilli sauce takes over the taste of other ingredients mostly. With a deep bite you also find crispy cucumber and cool mayo that feels good with fresh lettuce.
Texture
I should be honest on this that chicken lacked the juiciness we all crave for. Overall textural mismatch shakes the overall wrap experience.
Should I try this Wrap?
Yes, if you’re looking for a quick lunch on the go with less calories and more protein, you may try it out. As it offers less fat content and considered a healthier option than the crispy sweet chilli wrap.
Star Rating
3 out 5 star because of lacking juicy tenderness of the grilled chicken.
