Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 piece Red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Chilli sauce (e.g., Sriracha)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and coat them thoroughly. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor).
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Grill the marinated chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and charred slightly. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the chilli sauce to create the chilli mayonnaise. Adjust the amount of chilli sauce to your preferred spice level.
Warm the flour tortillas on a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla flat and spread 1 tablespoon of the chilli mayonnaise onto its center.
Layer a lettuce leaf, a few slices of tomato, red onion, and the grilled chicken slices on top of the chilli mayonnaise.
Sprinkle chopped parsley (if using) for an optional fresh touch.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly into a wrap. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.
Serve the wraps warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the burst of zesty and spicy flavors!
