Elevate your low-carb meal game with this irresistible Keto Southwest Chicken Wrap! Packed with bold, zesty flavors, this recipe combines tender shredded chicken, creamy avocado dressing, and a blend of southwest-inspired spices like chili powder, cumin, and paprika. Wrapped in crisp romaine lettuce leaves instead of carb-heavy tortillas, these wraps are topped with juicy cherry tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, and fresh cilantro for a refreshing, satisfying bite. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, this 20-minute recipe is not only keto-friendly but also gluten-free, making it a healthy, flavorful option for any occasion.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in lime juice, sour cream, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined to create the avocado dressing.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Add the shredded or diced chicken and warm for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.
Lay out the romaine lettuce leaves on a flat surface or plate. Ensure the leaves are large and sturdy enough to hold the fillings.
Spoon the warmed chicken evenly into the center of each romaine leaf.
Top the chicken with a drizzle of the avocado dressing, a few halved cherry tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro.
Carefully fold or roll the lettuce leaf around the fillings to form a wrap. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Southwest Chicken Wrap!
