Ingredients
- whole wheat tortilla 1 large (71g)
- grilled chicken breast 150 g
- mixed greens 1 cup (50g)
- tomato slices 4 slices (60g)
- avocado 1/4 medium (50g)
- light mayonnaise 1 tbsp (15g)
Method
-
Prepare the chicken.
If your chicken breast is not already grilled, season it lightly with salt and pepper, then grill it on medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
Tip: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe eating. -
Prepare the veggies.
Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly to avoid sogginess. Slice the tomato into medium-thick slices. Peel and slice the avocado into thin slices.
Tip: Pat the greens dry with paper towels or use a salad spinner to remove excess water. -
Warm the tortilla.
Heat the whole wheat tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until warm and pliable. This makes it easier to roll without tearing.
Tip: If you prefer, you can microwave the tortilla wrapped in a damp paper towel for 15-20 seconds. -
Assemble the wrap.
Lay the warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread the light mayonnaise evenly over the tortilla. Arrange the mixed greens in the center, followed by the sliced grilled chicken, tomato slices, and avocado slices.
Tip: Avoid overfilling to make rolling easier and prevent the wrap from bursting. -
Roll the wrap.
Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and continue rolling tightly until sealed. If needed, secure with a toothpick.
Tip: Keep the filling tightly packed as you roll to maintain the shape. -
Serve.
Cut the wrap diagonally in half for easier handling and serve immediately. Enjoy your nutritious grilled chicken wrap with veggies!
Tip: Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a small salad for a complete meal.
Pro tips
- To add extra flavor, marinate the chicken breast in lemon juice, garlic, and herbs for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Use a non-stick skillet to warm the tortilla to avoid sticking and tearing.
