Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (natural)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Wrap and Filling

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded plant-based cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken into thin strips for quick and even cooking. In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil (natural), minced fresh garlic, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), salt, and black pepper. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a slight golden color. The garlic aroma should be noticeable.
  3. Warm the Tortillas and Prepare Cheese: While the chicken cooks, warm the flour tortillas in a dry pan or microwave until soft and pliable. Have the shredded plant-based cheese ready near the stove for quick assembly.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Place a warmed tortilla flat on a plate. Spoon the hot garlic chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Immediately sprinkle a generous amount of shredded plant-based cheese on top so it can melt slightly from the heat. Add chopped fresh parsley for color and freshness.
  5. Fold and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll tightly from one end to enclose the filling. Serve the wraps immediately while warm and gooey, or wrap in parchment paper for a portable meal option.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic for a sharper and more vibrant flavor over powdered alternatives.
  • Do not overcook the chicken to maintain tenderness and juiciness.
  • Warm tortillas well before wrapping to prevent cracking and improve texture.
  • Add shredded plant-based cheese while the chicken is hot for ideal melting.
  • Let wraps rest a couple of minutes after rolling to allow flavors to meld.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to taste.
