Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 1 cup guacamole
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wrap Assembly
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
- Prepare Chicken Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken, guacamole, diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to evenly coat all ingredients and create a flavorful filling.
- Warm Tortillas: Slightly warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or on a skillet for 30 seconds per side to make them pliable and easier to roll.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly divide the shredded lettuce and cheese among the tortillas, spreading them out in the center.
- Add Chicken Mixture: Spoon the guacamole chicken mixture evenly over the lettuce and cheese on each tortilla.
- Roll Wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from one end to the other to enclose the filling securely.
- Serve: Slice the wraps in half if desired, and serve immediately. For portable meals, wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper to take on the go.
Notes
- Use grilled or rotisserie chicken for added flavor.
- Add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce for extra heat.
- Substitute whole wheat tortillas or low-carb wraps to make the recipe healthier.
- To make gluten-free versions, use gluten-free tortillas.
