Description
Delicious wraps filled with sweet chili chicken and fresh veggies, perfect for a quick lunch or dinner!
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded or chopped
- ½ cup sweet chili sauce
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 carrot, julienned
- ½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup sliced cucumber
- ¼ cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
-
Prepare the Chicken: If you haven’t already cooked your chicken, you can quickly pan-sear or grill it with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Once cooked through, let it cool slightly and then shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
-
Mix with Sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the sweet chili sauce. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated. The sauce should cling nicely to the chicken, giving it a glossy, sticky finish.
-
Prepare the Veggies: Slice your vegetables—lettuce, carrot, bell pepper, and cucumber. Keep them thin so the wrap rolls easily and doesn’t burst.
-
Spread the Creamy Base: Take each tortilla and spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt across the center. This adds creaminess and helps mellow out the heat from the chili sauce.
-
Assemble the Wraps: On each tortilla, layer the sweet chili chicken, followed by the shredded lettuce, carrots, bell pepper, and cucumber. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
-
Roll It Up: Fold in the sides, then roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom up. Slice in half diagonally for that perfect deli-style presentation.
-
Serve and Enjoy: These wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can also be wrapped in foil or parchment and kept chilled for later.
Notes
- These wraps are versatile; feel free to add other vegetables or proteins based on your preference.
- For a spicier kick, consider adding jalapeños or Sriracha to the chicken mixture.
