Chicken Avocado Wrap (Printable Version)

Seasoned chicken strips with avocado, fresh vegetables and tangy yogurt dressing wrapped in a warm tortilla.

# Ingredients:

→ Chicken

01 - 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon paprika
05 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
06 - Salt and pepper, to taste

→ Fresh Ingredients

07 - 1 ripe avocado, sliced
08 - 1 cup shredded lettuce
09 - 1 medium tomato, sliced
10 - 1 small cucumber, sliced
11 - 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

→ Dressing

12 - 1/4 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
13 - 1 tablespoon lemon juice
14 - 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

→ Wraps

15 - 4 whole-wheat or regular tortillas (20 cm/8-inch)

# Steps:

01 - Combine garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Evenly coat both sides of the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 6-8 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F) and chicken is completely cooked through.
03 - Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes to retain juices. Slice into thin strips.
04 - While chicken rests, slice the avocado, tomato, cucumber, and red onion. Shred the lettuce with a sharp knife or tear into bite-sized pieces.
05 - In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste.
06 - Place tortillas on a dry skillet over low heat for 20-30 seconds per side to warm and increase pliability.
07 - Lay each tortilla flat and distribute shredded lettuce in the center. Layer sliced chicken, avocado, tomato, cucumber, and red onion. Drizzle with the Greek yogurt dressing.
08 - Fold the sides of each tortilla toward the center, then roll tightly to secure all ingredients inside. Slice diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap in foil or parchment paper for later consumption.

# Notes:

01 - For a spicier variation, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken seasoning or a few slices of jalapeño to the wrap.
02 - These wraps can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
