Ingredients

• 1 large chicken breast, boneless and skinless
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 large whole wheat tortillas
• 1 large avocado
• 1 cup spinach leaves
• 1 medium, diced tomato
• 0.25 small, thinly sliced red onion

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the chicken breast. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.

Step 2

Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the chicken is well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the other ingredients: slice the avocado, dice the tomato, and thinly slice the red onion.

Step 4

Heat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Once heated, grill the marinated chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until completely cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

Step 6

Remove the cooked chicken from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

Step 7

To assemble the wraps, place a large tortilla on a flat surface. Lay down a bed of spinach leaves, followed by the sliced chicken, avocado, diced tomato, and thinly sliced red onion.

Step 8

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly from the bottom to the top.

Step 9

Repeat with the second tortilla.

Step 10

Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately.
