In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps on how to prepare a chicken wrap that is both flavorful and satisfying.
Ingredients
Before you start preparing your chicken wrap, gather the following ingredients:
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 large tortilla (such as whole wheat or spinach tortilla)
– 1 cup mixed greens (such as arugula, spinach, and romaine)
– 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
– 1/2 cup sliced cucumber
– 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
– 1/4 cup sliced red onion
– 1/4 cup sliced avocado
– 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or sour cream
– 1 tablespoon lime juice
– Optional: salsa, hot sauce, or cilantro
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the chicken breasts to coat them evenly.
2. Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
3. While the chicken is resting, prepare the vegetables. In a large bowl, mix together the mixed greens, shredded lettuce, sliced cucumber, bell peppers, red onion, and avocado.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt or sour cream and lime juice. This will create a simple and flavorful dressing for your wrap.
5. Lay out your tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a thin layer of the yogurt or sour cream mixture on the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Add the sliced chicken strips to the center of the tortilla. Top with the mixed greens and vegetables.
7. Starting from the bottom edge of the tortilla, roll the wrap tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Repeat with the remaining tortilla and ingredients.
8. Slice the wrap in half and serve immediately. If desired, you can add a dollop of salsa, hot sauce, or a sprinkle of cilantro for extra flavor.
Now you have a delicious chicken wrap that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy your homemade meal and savor the flavors of this simple yet satisfying dish!
