Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Plant-based chicken strips
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Large flour tortillas (vegan-friendly)
- 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.75 cup Corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen and thawed)
- 0.75 cup Black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup Vegan southwest sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 4 Lime wedges (for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the plant-based chicken strips and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over them. Toss to coat and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strips are heated through and slightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Lay each tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of vegan southwest sauce in the center, leaving space around the edges for folding.
Layer the chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, corn kernels, black beans, avocado slices, and cooked plant-based chicken strips on top of the sauce.
Sprinkle with fresh cilantro, if using.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Cut each wrap in half, if desired, and serve with lime wedges on the side for a fresh squeeze of citrus flavor.
