Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 1 grilled chicken breast, sliced
  • 1/2 cup lettuce, shredded
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced cucumbers
  • 1/4 cup sweet corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons creamy Southwest dressing (or your favorite dressing)
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

Optional substitutes:

  • Use spinach or kale instead of lettuce.
  • Replace tortillas with whole-grain wraps for a healthier twist.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Tortillas

Heat the tortillas on a dry skillet for 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

Step 2: Season the Chicken

In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this blend over the sliced grilled chicken to infuse it with smoky goodness.

Step 3: Layer the Dressing and Vegetables

Spread 1 tablespoon of creamy Southwest dressing evenly on each tortilla. Layer the shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet corn, and red onions.

Step 4: Add the Grilled Chicken

Place the seasoned grilled chicken slices on top of the vegetables, ensuring an even distribution for every bite.

Step 5: Wrap it Up

Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it tightly into a wrap. Slice diagonally for presentation and serve immediately.

Pro tip: Use fresh and high-quality tortillas to prevent tearing during the wrapping process.

Equipment

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a splash of lime juice to the chicken.
  • To make these wraps spicier, drizzle with hot sauce or add jalapeños.
  • Always warm your tortillas to enhance their texture and prevent breaking.
