Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, shredded
- 1/2 cup corn kernels
- 1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp honey
- 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, mix chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken strips evenly with the seasoning.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken for 5 to 7 minutes, flipping halfway, until fully cooked and golden brown. Let rest for 5 minutes.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, honey, chipotle powder, and a pinch of salt to make the Southwest sauce.
4. Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
5. Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of sauce down the center of each tortilla.
6. Layer with lettuce, chicken, corn, black beans, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, and cilantro.
7. Fold the bottom up, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly into a wrap.
8. Slice in half and serve immediately or wrap for later.
Notes
For meal prep, leave out avocado and tomatoes until ready to eat to prevent sogginess.
Store wraps tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Keep sauce separate if preparing ahead for best texture.
Rotisserie chicken can be used as a shortcut.
Use gluten-free tortillas if needed.
