Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Black beans (cooked or canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 Lime (zested and juiced)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas (large)
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
Instructions
Start by preparing the chicken. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and rub them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning blend evenly over both chicken breasts.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the avocado black bean mixture. In a medium bowl, mash the avocado until smooth or leave it slightly chunky, based on your preference.
Stir in the lime juice, lime zest, chopped cilantro, cooked black beans, and Greek yogurt. Mix well and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until soft and pliable.
To assemble the wraps, place a generous spoonful of the avocado black bean mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Top with sliced chicken, shredded lettuce, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll the bottom up and over the fillings, tucking it snugly to create a wrap. Continue rolling until sealed.
Slice each wrap in half, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Black Bean Avocado Chicken Wraps!
