Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece ripe avocado
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 4 leaves romaine lettuce
- 1 piece medium tomato, diced
- 0.25 piece red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Place chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour marinade over the chicken, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove chicken from marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
While the chicken is resting, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until creamy and then season with a pinch of salt.
Warm the tortillas in a pan over low heat or directly on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side.
To assemble the wraps, spread a spoonful of mashed avocado over each tortilla.
Layer with a leaf of romaine lettuce, slices of grilled chicken, diced tomato, a few slices of red onion, and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
