Ingredients
- 5 large tortillas
- 2 cups lettuce, shredded
- 2 large tomatoes, diced
- 1 lb (450g) chicken breast, cooked and sliced
- 5 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: If not already cooked, grill or pan-fry the chicken breast until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes on each side. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.
- Warm the Tortillas: In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm each tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable. This step makes it easier to roll.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a warm tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, add a generous handful of shredded lettuce, followed by a portion of sliced chicken and diced tomatoes.
- Add Sriracha: Drizzle about a tablespoon of Sriracha sauce over the top of the filling. Adjust the amount based on your spice preference.
- Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to the top, ensuring everything is tucked inside securely. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
