Chicken Avocado Wrap Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • - 2-4 cups cooked chicken shredded or cubed
  • - 1-3 avocados cut and cubed
  • - 1 cup grape tomatoes chopped
  • - 3 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • - 2 green onions chopped
  • - 1-2 teaspoons chili powder
  • - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • - 3/4 teaspoon cumin
  • - 1/4 teaspoon coriander
  • - Lime juice 1-2 teaspoons
  • - 1/4 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • - 1/4 cup sour cream optional
  • - Cheese optional, e.g., mozzarella or cheddar
  • - Flour or whole wheat tortillas 4-6

Instructions
 

  • Directions:
  • In a large mixing bowl, scoop the flesh of the avocados and mash it with a fork or pastry cutter until smooth.
  • Stir in the lime juice to prevent browning and add a zesty flavor.
  • Add the cooked chicken, chopped grape tomatoes, cilantro, and green onions to the mashed avocado.
  • Mix well to combine all ingredients.
  • Sprinkle the chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and coriander over the mixture.
  • Stir thoroughly to guarantee the spices are evenly distributed.
  • If desired, fold in mayonnaise or Greek yogurt and sour cream for a creamier texture.
  • You can also add cheese at this stage for extra flavor.
  • Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface.
  • Scoop a generous amount of the chicken and avocado mixture onto each tortilla, then roll them up tightly, folding in the sides as you go.
  • You can serve the wraps immediately or refrigerate the filling for 30 minutes to 2 days for a chilled option.
  • If you prefer warm wraps, you can toast them on a skillet for a minute or two on each side before serving.
  • Extra Tips:
  • When preparing chicken avocado wraps, feel free to experiment with additional vegetables like bell peppers or lettuce for added crunch and nutrition.
  • If you have leftover filling, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; however, it's best to assemble the wraps just before eating for maximum freshness.
  • Additionally, using shredded chicken from Costco's rotisserie chicken can save time and enhance the flavor.
