Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder (salt-free)
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas (low-sodium)
• 1 large Avocado
• 2 teaspoons Lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato, diced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Low-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
• 0.5 cup Sweet corn kernels (unsalted, fresh or frozen)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in the skillet. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reads 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 4

While the chicken rests, prepare the avocado spread by mashing the avocado in a small bowl. Mix in lime juice and cilantro until smooth and season with black pepper if desired.

Step 5

Warm the whole wheat tortillas in the microwave or on a dry skillet for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 6

To assemble the wraps, spread a generous layer of avocado spread onto each tortilla. Layer with lettuce, tomato, red onion, black beans, and corn.

Step 7

Top with sliced chicken breast strips.

Step 8

Wrap the tortillas tightly, tucking in the sides as you roll. Slice each wrap in half for easier serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper for an on-the-go meal.
