Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Wrap:
4 large flour tortillas
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
1 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
For the Sauce (optional but recommended):
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon hot sauce (adjust to taste)
Salt to taste
Instructions:
1.Prepare the Chicken:
Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts. In a small bowl, mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Rub this spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). The exterior should be golden brown, and the juices should run clear.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
2.Prepare the Sauce (if using):
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, lime juice, hot sauce, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well mixed. Adjust seasoning to your taste and set aside.
3.Assemble the Wraps:
Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface or large plate. If desired, warm the tortillas slightly in a dry skillet or microwave for about 10 seconds to make them more pliable.
Evenly distribute the shredded lettuce among the tortillas, placing it in the center of each.
Add a layer of sliced chicken over the lettuce.
Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the chicken, followed by the cherry tomato halves, avocado slices, and red onion rings.
Garnish with fresh cilantro.
4.Roll and Serve:
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling securely.
For a warm touch, you can toast the wraps in a skillet over medium heat for a couple of minutes on each side until they are golden and crispy.
5.Serve:
Cut the wraps in half diagonally for easy handling. Serve with the sour cream sauce on the side or drizzle it inside the wraps before rolling.
