Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 cup (100g) shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup (100g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup (50g) sliced cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup (50g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) ranch dressing or any preferred sauce

Directions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by preheating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it warm up.
  2. Season the Chicken: In a bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, black pepper, and salt. Toss the thinly sliced chicken breast in this spice mixture until evenly coated.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken in the heated skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a golden-brown color. Once done, remove the skillet from the heat.
  4. Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken is cooking, warm the tortillas by briefly heating them in a dry skillet or microwave.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat and spread a layer of ranch dressing over the surface. Then, evenly distribute the shredded lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, shredded cheddar cheese, and cooked chicken across the tortillas.
  6. Roll and Serve: Roll up the tortillas tightly, ensuring all ingredients are tucked inside. Slice in half if desired and serve immediately.

Tips for Perfect Wraps:

  • Customize Your Wraps: Feel free to add or swap ingredients based on your preferences. Avocado slices, bell peppers, or even a sprinkle of hot sauce can elevate these wraps.
  • Storage: If you’re preparing these wraps ahead of time, store the assembled wraps in the refrigerator. Wrap them in foil or plastic wrap to keep them fresh.
