Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Brown rice
• 2 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 small Red onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 cups Fresh spinach
• 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Cook the brown rice in the low-sodium chicken broth according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

While the rice is cooking, trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts and cut them into thin strips.

Step 3

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes or until cooked through, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Finely chop the red bell pepper and red onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 5

Add the chopped bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet with the chicken. Stir and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 6

Add the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

Step 7

Reduce heat to low and add the freshly cooked rice into the skillet along with the lime juice and chopped cilantro. Mix everything together.

Step 8

Gently fold in the fresh spinach and let it wilt slightly in the mixture, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 10

To assemble the wraps, spoon a generous portion of the chicken and rice mixture onto each tortilla. Roll them up tightly, tucking in the edges as you go.

Step 11

Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your Low Fat Chicken Rice Wraps!
