Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Large tortillas
- 4 pieces Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 medium-sized Tomatoes
- 0.5 medium-sized Red onion
- 1 cup Grated cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over both chicken breasts.
Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Prepare the vegetables: wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves, slice the tomatoes into thin rounds, and finely slice the red onion.
In another small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and lemon juice to make the bistro dressing.
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a lettuce leaf in the center, followed by sliced chicken, tomato slices, a few onion slices, and a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese.
Drizzle the bistro dressing over the fillings. Be careful not to overfill to ensure the wrap can roll up easily.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly into a wrap. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your Bistro Chicken Twisters!
