Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup diced cucumbers
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- Lime wedges (for serving)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in a bowl and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ground ginger. Make sure the chicken is coated evenly with the seasonings.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the sweet chili sauce and soy sauce. Pour half of this mixture over the seasoned chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet, cooking for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center. The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
- While the chicken is resting, prepare your tortillas. Warm them in a microwave or a dry skillet for a few seconds until they’re pliable.
- To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, add a handful of shredded lettuce, a few slices of chicken, some shredded carrots, diced cucumbers, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro if using.
- Drizzle the remaining sweet chili sauce over the fillings for extra flavor.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to encase all the ingredients securely.
- Repeat the assembly process for the remaining tortillas and fillings.
- Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier eating and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
