Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Marinade

  • 2 chicken breasts, thinly sliced into strips
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce (natural)

Wrap Filling

  • 1 cup fresh bell peppers, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup grated carrots

Additional Ingredients

  • 4 large soft flour or whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Extra sweet chili sauce (natural) for spreading
  • Optional garnishes: chopped green onions, toasted sesame seeds, fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a bowl, combine vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and sweet chili sauce (natural). Toss the chicken strips in this marinade and let them sit for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes, allowing the sweet chili sauce to caramelize slightly for extra flavor and juiciness.
  3. Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken is cooking, rinse and thinly slice the fresh bell peppers. Shred the lettuce and grate the carrots so they are ready to add fresh crunch and vibrant texture to the wraps.
  4. Warm the Tortillas: Gently warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave to make them pliable and easy to fold without cracking.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each warm tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of sweet chili sauce (natural). Layer on the cooked chicken, bell peppers, shredded lettuce, and grated carrots. Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla upward, then tuck in the sides and roll tightly to secure the wrap.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
  • Do not overfill the wraps to keep them easy to handle.
  • Use fresh vegetables to maintain optimum crunch and contrast.
  • Add extra sweet chili sauce (natural) after cooking for a saucier wrap.
  • Warm tortillas just before assembling to avoid cracks and improve pliability.
