Ingredients
Scale
Marinade and Chicken
- 1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp sweet chili sauce (natural)
- 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Vegetables and Wraps
- 1 bell pepper, julienned
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 2 spring onions, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken marinade: In a bowl, mix sweet chili sauce (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Toss the thinly sliced chicken breast in the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Cook the chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the vegetables: While the chicken cooks, julienne the bell peppers and carrots, thinly slice the cucumber, and chop the spring onions and cilantro. Arrange these fresh veggies together for easy assembly.
- Assemble the wraps: Warm the tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Place a tortilla flat, spoon a generous portion of cooked chicken onto the center, then layer with fresh vegetables and sprinkle with cilantro.
- Wrap and serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly to keep the fillings secure. Serve immediately with extra sweet chili sauce (natural) on the side if desired.
Notes
- Marinate longer for deeper flavor; up to 30 minutes if time allows.
- Use fresh sweet chili sauce (natural) for brighter taste.
- Do not overfill wraps to make rolling easier.
- Toast wraps slightly on a dry pan to add light crispness and prevent tearing.
- Cut wraps in half for easier handling and serving as snacks or finger food.
