👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Prepare the Chicken:: In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin powder, onion powder, lime juice, and salt. Adjust the heat by adding chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (chopped or pureed, depending on your preference). Drizzle in the olive oil and mix until the chicken is well coated. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- 2Cook the Chicken:: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Set aside.
- 3Prepare the Sauce:: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, garlic powder, reserved adobo sauce, salt, pepper, and chopped cilantro. Adjust seasoning as desired.
- 4Assemble the Wraps:: Lay each tortilla flat and top with shredded lettuce, chicken pieces, red onion, bell peppers, shredded cheese. Finally, drizzle with plenty of the chipotle yogurt sauce. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to close the wrap.
- 5Serve:: Serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil for an on-the-go meal.
