Spicy Chipotle Chicken Avocado Wrap
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to make the spicy chipotle mayo. Set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
- Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
- Spread a generous amount of the spicy chipotle mayo onto each tortilla. Top with sliced avocado and the grilled chicken strips.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly, tucking in the filling as you go.
- Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately. Enjoy!
