👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Make the Chipotle Mayo
    In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, chopped chipotle peppers, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Chill until ready to use.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
