Ingredients
For the Wrap
- 1 large chicken breast cut into thin strips
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper adjust for spice level
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 large tortilla wraps whole wheat or flour

- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1 tbsp hot sauce or sriracha adjust for spice level
- 1 tbsp ranch dressing optional
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt. Add the chicken strips and toss until fully coated.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the seasoned chicken for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until fully cooked and slightly crispy.
- While the chicken cooks, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for 20-30 seconds on each side to make them more flexible.
- Spread Greek yogurt (or sour cream) on each tortilla. Drizzle hot sauce over the yogurt for an extra spicy kick.
- Layer shredded lettuce, sliced avocado, shredded cheddar cheese, and the cooked spicy chicken on the tortillas.
- If using, drizzle a little ranch dressing over the fillings before wrapping.
- Fold the bottom of the tortilla up, then roll it tightly from one side to create a wrap. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Slice in half and serve immediately with a side of tortilla chips or a fresh salad.

Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for 20 minutes before cooking. Swap Greek yogurt with mayonnaise for a creamier texture.
