Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 pieces chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup sweet corn, drained
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 2 cups romaine lettuce leaves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Trim any excess fat off the chicken breasts and season them evenly with the taco seasoning.
Cook the chicken breasts in the skillet for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C). Remove from the skillet and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare your other ingredients: rinse the black beans and corn, slice the avocado, and chop the romaine lettuce and cilantro (if using).
Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of sour cream across the center.
Add a portion of the sliced chicken, followed by a sprinkle of black beans and corn, a handful of chopped lettuce, a few slices of avocado, a spoonful of salsa, and a sprinkle of shredded Mexican blend cheese.
Fold the tortilla: start by folding in the sides, then roll tightly from the bottom upwards to form a secure wrap.
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Optional: For a crispier tortilla, place the wraps seam-side down back in the skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Serve warm with lime wedges on the side and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
