Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Vegetarian chicken strips
- 4 pieces Whole wheat wrap or tortilla
- 2 medium Avocado
- 100 grams Fresh spinach leaves
- 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 1 small Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 grams Cilantro
Instructions
Begin by preparing the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes, finely slice the red onion, and roughly chop the cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a simple dressing. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the vegetarian chicken strips and cook for about 8-10 minutes or until heated through and lightly browned, stirring occasionally.
While the chicken strips are cooking, slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth and season with a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
Lay out the whole wheat wraps on a clean surface. Spread a generous spoonful of mashed avocado over each wrap.
Divide the fresh spinach leaves evenly among the wraps, layering them on top of the avocado spread.
Top with cooked vegetarian chicken strips, followed by the cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and chopped cilantro.
Drizzle each wrap with the prepared lemon-garlic dressing, ensuring even distribution of flavor.
Carefully roll up each wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
Slice each wrap in half diagonally, if desired, and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
