Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 0.5 cup Pesto sauce
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 piece Avocado
- 0.5 piece Red onion
- 1 cup Baby spinach
Directions
Step 1
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is golden brown. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes.
Step 4
While the chicken is resting, halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the avocado, and thinly slice the red onion.
Step 5
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.
Step 6
Thinly slice the rested chicken breasts.
Step 7
To assemble the wraps, spread about 2 tablespoons of pesto sauce onto each tortilla.
Step 8
Evenly distribute the sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, avocado, red onion, mozzarella cheese, and baby spinach on top of the pesto layer.
Step 9
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to secure. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Step 10
Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
