Ingredients
Protein
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
Vegetables
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
Sauces & Dressings
- ⅓ cup sweet chili sauce
- ¼ cup ranch dressing
Dairy
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Other
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over the diced chicken breasts to enhance their natural flavor.
- Heat the Oil: Place a skillet on medium heat and add the olive oil, allowing it to warm up thoroughly before adding the chicken.
- Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
- Add Sweet Chili Sauce: Stir in the sweet chili sauce with the chicken and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Warm the Tortillas: Gently warm each flour tortilla in a dry pan or microwave to make them pliable and easy to wrap.
- Assemble the Wraps: On each tortilla, layer shredded lettuce, shredded carrots, sliced red bell pepper, shredded cheddar cheese, and the cooked sweet chili chicken.
- Add Dressing: Drizzle ranch dressing over the fillings to add creamy texture and complementary flavor.
- Roll and Serve: Roll the tortillas tightly to enclose the fillings, slice if desired, and serve immediately warm or allow to cool for a cold wrap option.
Notes
- Add sliced avocado to the wraps for extra creaminess and healthy fats.
- Substitute flour tortillas with spinach wraps for added color, flavor, and nutrition.
- These wraps can be enjoyed warm straight off the skillet or cold as a refreshing meal option.
