Begin by marinating the chicken breast. In a bowl, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder. Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and add them to the bowl. Mix well to coat the chicken completely and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the avocado sauce. Scoop out the flesh of the avocados into a separate bowl. Add the juice of one lime, Greek yogurt, finely chopped cilantro, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and finely chopped red onion to the avocados. Mash and mix until smooth, adjusting the seasoning if necessary.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated chicken strips for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side until they are fully cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the heat and set aside.
To assemble the wraps, lay out each gluten-free wrap on a flat surface. Spread a generous amount of the avocado sauce over each wrap, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Place a lettuce leaf on top of the avocado layer on each wrap. Divide the cooked chicken evenly over the lettuce.
Starting from one end, carefully roll each wrap tightly. Slice each wrap in half diagonally before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy and satisfying Gluten-Free High Protein Chicken Avocado Wrap!
