Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 680 grams)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
4 large flour tortillas (burrito size, about 25 cm diameter)
1 Roma tomato, chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion (about 40 grams)
2 cups romaine lettuce, sliced (about 100 grams)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (about 120 grams)
1–2 tablespoons sriracha or preferred hot sauce (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with these wraps is straightforward and fun, perfect for weekend grill masters or busy professionals. First, cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and mix them in a bowl with lemon juice, olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper for that signature Cajun kick. This step ensures every piece is coated evenly, drawing from techniques we love in grilling meats for maximum flavor.
2-Cook the chicken: Cook the chicken in a preheated oven at 190Β°C (375Β°F) for about 18 minutes, or use a skillet over medium-high heat for 14-18 minutes until it’s fully done. While the chicken cooks, chop the tomato, red onion, and lettuce, and whip up the sauce by combining Greek yogurt, sriracha, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Warm the tortillas to make them easy to fold, keeping things simple and accessible for home cooks.
3-To assemble: To assemble, place the cooked chicken, fresh veggies, and sauce in the center of each tortilla, then fold it up securely. This method not only locks in the flavors but also makes for a portable meal, ideal for travelers or newlyweds on the go. Remember, these steps build on our blog’s grilling traditions, turning basic ingredients into something special.
