👩🍳 Instructions
- Make the Chipotle Mayo
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, chopped chipotle peppers, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Chill until ready to use. - Prep the Chicken
If using thick chicken breasts, slice into ½-inch cutlets. In a medium bowl, toss chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, lime juice, and minced garlic. For best flavor, marinate for a few hours or overnight if time allows. - Grill the Chicken
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil if using a skillet. Cook chicken for 3–4 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest for 10 minutes, then cut into bite-sized pieces. - Assemble the Wraps
Lay a tortilla flat on a cutting board. Layer with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cheese, and grilled chicken. Drizzle with chipotle mayo. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a wrap. - Serve & Enjoy
Slice in half if desired and serve warm with your favorite sides.
🔄 Notes & Tips
- Short on time? Use leftover grilled chicken or store-bought rotisserie chicken.
- Warm tortillas roll more easily—microwave for 10–15 seconds if needed.
- Storage: Wrap leftovers tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
