Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, uncooked
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- ⅛ teaspoon dried cayenne pepper
For the Wraps:
- 2 large burrito-sized whole wheat tortillas (10 inch)
- ¼ cup plain 0% Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup low sugar BBQ sauce
- 2 cups coleslaw mix (broccoli slaw recommended)
- ¼ cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 green onion, finely sliced
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (divided)
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
- 6 slices tomatoes
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Coat them evenly with olive oil, then rub with paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and cook the chicken breasts until fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F. Cook both sides thoroughly. Remove the chicken and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the sliced cooked chicken with Greek yogurt, low sugar BBQ sauce, coleslaw mix, cilantro, green onion, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix all ingredients thoroughly to blend flavors.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay each whole wheat tortilla flat and place a layer of chopped romaine lettuce in the center. Add half of the chicken and veggie filling on top, then place 3 slices of tomato on each. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top.
- Wrap and Serve: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll up from the bottom to make a tight wrap. Press down gently to ensure it holds together. Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is cooked safely to 165°F.
- Substitute broccoli slaw with regular coleslaw or shredded cabbage if preferred.
- For added spice, increase cayenne pepper slightly, or add hot sauce to the filling.
- To make this wrap ahead, keep components separate and assemble just before serving.
- Whole wheat tortillas provide extra fiber but gluten-free tortillas can be used if needed.
