Description

Flavor-packed wraps with juicy chicken glazed in sweet chili sauce, crisp vegetables, and creamy accents—all wrapped in a soft tortilla for an easy, customizable meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (about 450 g)

  • ½ cup sweet chili sauce

  • 4 large flour tortillas (or gluten-free/lettuce wraps)

  • 1 cup shredded lettuce

  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • ½ cup shredded carrots

  • 2 green onions, chopped

  • 1 tbsp lime juice (optional)

  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional)

  • 1 tsp grated ginger (optional)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil (or cooking oil of choice)

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise or yogurt (optional for creamy drizzle)


Instructions

  • Cut chicken into bite-sized strips.

  • Marinate briefly with garlic, ginger, lime juice, and a spoonful of sweet chili sauce (optional).

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.

  • Add sweet chili sauce to the skillet during the last minute, stirring to coat the chicken evenly.

  • Warm tortillas until pliable.

  • Layer lettuce, red bell pepper, carrots, and chicken on each tortilla. Drizzle with extra sauce or mayo/yogurt mixture if desired.

  • Fold the bottom up, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly. Serve immediately.

Notes

Drain juicy vegetables like tomatoes or cucumbers to avoid soggy wraps.

For extra crunch, add shredded cabbage or roasted peanuts.

Make components ahead, but assemble just before eating for the best texture.

To lighten the recipe, use low-sugar sweet chili sauce and whole wheat or lettuce wraps.
