Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon oil (for cooking)
  • ½ cup sweet chili sauce

Vegetables

  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce

Wraps

  • 4 soft flour tortillas (6–8 inch size)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips for quick and even cooking. Marinate them briefly in minced garlic and a squeeze of lime juice to tenderize and infuse flavor.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil. Cook the chicken strips until they turn golden and are fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add the Sweet Chili Sauce: Reduce the heat to low, toss the cooked chicken with sweet chili sauce, allowing it to warm and coat the chicken thoroughly, giving a sticky and flavorful finish.
  4. Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken cooks, thinly slice the bell peppers and red onion. Shred the lettuce to keep all vegetables fresh and ready for assembling.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Warm the tortillas briefly to make them pliable. Layer the saucy chicken strips evenly over each tortilla, top with the prepared vegetables, then roll the wraps tightly, folding in the ends to secure the filling.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken for at least 10 minutes to enhance flavor.
  • Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave for easier rolling and better texture.
  • If the sweet chili sauce is too sweet, balance with extra lime juice or a pinch of salt.
  • Use fresh, crisp vegetables to contrast the saucy chicken and add crunch.
  • Wraps are best served fresh but can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • For reheating, use a skillet or oven to keep the wraps crisp; avoid the microwave to prevent sogginess.
