Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large collard green leaves
- 1 medium ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 0.5 medium cucumber, julienned
- 1 medium lime, cut into wedges
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
Pound the chicken breasts evenly to about 1/2 inch thickness using a meat mallet to ensure even cooking.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
While the chicken is resting, prepare the vegetables. Wash the collard green leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Carefully trim the thick stem at the base of each leaf to make them easier to wrap.
Place a large collard green leaf on a flat surface. Arrange a few slices of avocado, bell pepper, and cucumber in the center of the leaf. Add a portion of the sliced grilled chicken on top.
Sprinkle fresh cilantro leaves over the filling. Optionally, squeeze a little lime juice over everything for a zesty kick.
Carefully fold the sides of the collard leaf over the filling, then roll from one end to the other to form a wrap. Use a toothpick to secure if needed.
Repeat the wrapping process with the remaining ingredients to make four snack wraps.
Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil to take on-the-go.
