Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Sauce

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • ½ cup sweet chili sauce

Wraps and Vegetables

  • 4 large flour tortillas or whole wheat wraps
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce or mixed greens
  • ½ cup shredded carrots
  • ½ cup thinly sliced cucumber
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • ½ avocado, sliced (optional)

Extras

  • ¼ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise or Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: If you do not have leftover cooked chicken, cook chicken breasts by boiling, baking, or grilling until fully cooked. Allow to cool before shredding or dicing into bite-sized pieces to make handling and eating easier.
  2. Toss Chicken with Sweet Chili Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the sweet chili sauce. Stir thoroughly to ensure each piece of chicken is evenly coated with the flavorful spicy-sweet glaze.
  3. Prepare the Veggies: Thoroughly wash and shred the lettuce or mixed greens. Shred the carrots, thinly slice the cucumber and red onion. If using avocado, slice it just before assembling the wrap to prevent discoloration.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat on your work surface. Optionally spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt in the center for creaminess. Add a base layer of greens, followed by the sweet chili chicken, shredded carrots, cucumber slices, red onion, and avocado slices if using. Sprinkle shredded cheese and chopped cilantro on top. Drizzle with fresh lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Roll and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose all the ingredients securely. Slice each wrap in half if desired and serve immediately, or package wrapped in foil or plastic wrap for later consumption.

Notes

  • Use leftover grilled or baked chicken for convenience and enhanced flavor.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or large lettuce leaves.
  • For added heat, drizzle with extra hot sauce or add chopped fresh chilies.
  • You can swap mayonnaise for Greek yogurt to reduce fat and add protein.
  • Store any leftover wraps wrapped tightly in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours for best freshness.
