Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Dairy-free tortillas (large size, gluten-free if needed)
• 2 cups Romaine lettuce
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 cup Canned black beans (rinsed and drained)
• 0.5 cup Fresh corn kernels (optional)
• 1 piece Ripe avocado
• 1 piece Lime
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts on a clean cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels. Rub them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Evenly sprinkle this spice rub over both sides of the chicken breasts.

Step 3

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

Step 4

While the chicken is resting, prepare the wrap fillings: chop the romaine lettuce, slice the cherry tomatoes in half, mash the avocado in a small bowl, and juice the lime over the avocado. Mix the mashed avocado with a pinch of salt to create a creamy avocado spread.

Step 5

Warm the dairy-free tortillas in a dry skillet for 15-20 seconds on each side, or until they are flexible and easy to roll.

Step 6

To assemble, spread a thin layer of the avocado mixture over the center of each tortilla. Layer with romaine lettuce, sliced chicken strips, cherry tomatoes, black beans, and corn kernels (if using). Add a sprinkle of cilantro and a dash of hot sauce, if desired.

Step 7

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly into a wrap. Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for a grab-and-go meal.
