Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces chicken breasts, cooked and shredded For best flavor, use leftover rotisserie chicken if available.
  • 1 pieces avocado, diced Ensure avocado is ripe for the best texture.
  • 0.5 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise Choose based on taste preference.
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice Adds freshness; adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste Adjust seasoning to preference.
  • Lettuce leaves (e.g., Romaine or Butter lettuce) Sturdy lettuce works best to hold wraps.
Optional Toppings
  • diced tomatoes
  • cilantro Fresh cilantro adds flavor.
  • red onion Optional for extra crunch and flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with diced avocado.
  2. Add in the Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Assembly
  1. Take your lettuce leaves and lay them out flat.
  2. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken and avocado mixture onto each leaf.
  3. If desired, top your wraps with diced tomatoes, cilantro, or red onion for added flavor and texture.
Serving
  1. Wrap it up and take a big bite of freshness!

Notes

For the best flavor, use ripe avocados. Sturdier lettuce like Romaine or Butter works best to prevent tearing. Store filling separately in an airtight container for up to 3 days; lettuce should be stored separately to keep crisp.
