Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
- 1 piece Red bell pepper, diced
- 1.5 cups Sweet corn kernels (canned or frozen)
- 2 cups Shredded lettuce
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 pieces Tortilla wraps (10-inch)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the chicken strips, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and slightly golden. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced red bell pepper and sweet corn kernels. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.
Warm the tortilla wraps in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, place a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Add a scoop of cooked rice to the center, followed by cooked chicken, bell pepper and corn mix, shredded lettuce, and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Top with a dollop of sour cream and salsa for extra flavor.
Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly to form a wrap.
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Serve immediately or wrap in foil to keep warm for later. Enjoy!
