Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 8 pieces Romaine lettuce leaves
- 12 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 0.25 cup Cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Brush the chicken breasts with the olive oil mixture on both sides.
Grill the chicken breasts on the preheated grill pan for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
While the chicken is resting, slice the avocado and remove the pit. Scoop out the avocado flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork and add lime juice, mixing well until smooth and creamy.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and slice the red onion thinly.
Lay out the romaine lettuce leaves on a clean surface.
Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each lettuce leaf.
Place a few slices of grilled chicken, some cherry tomato halves, and onion slices onto the avocado layer.
Sprinkle with cilantro if using, then carefully roll the lettuce leaves into wraps, securing them with toothpicks if necessary.
Serve immediately and enjoy a heart-healthy keto meal!
