How to Make Chicken Wraps
Start by seasoning your boneless, skinless chicken breasts with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until the chicken is fully cooked and the juices run clear. Remove the chicken from the pan and allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Next, take your flour tortillas and place them on a flat surface. Layer the shredded lettuce, sliced chicken, shredded cheese, and diced tomatoes in the center of each tortilla. Once the filling is added, fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap. For added flavor, feel free to include salsa or sour cream before rolling it up.
Serve the wraps immediately, or cut them in half for easier handling. This quick chicken wrap recipe is perfect for busy nights when you want something flavorful and filling in no time.
