  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Chicken Avocado Filling

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas or wraps

Optional Toppings

  • Lettuce leaves
  • Sliced tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced avocados, plain Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix to combine while keeping some avocado chunks intact for texture.
  2. Add fresh ingredients: Stir in the finely chopped red onion and fresh parsley into the chicken and avocado mixture.
  3. Warm the tortillas: Lightly warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave until they become pliable and easy to fold without cracking.
  4. Assemble the wraps: Divide the chicken avocado mixture evenly among the warmed tortillas, placing it in the center. Add optional toppings like lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes if desired.
  5. Roll and serve: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap. Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately for the best flavor and freshness.

Notes

  • Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
  • Chicken can be freshly cooked, leftover, or rotisserie chicken.
  • You can substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat or gluten-free wraps for dietary preferences.
  • For extra spice, add a dash of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • Make ahead by preparing filling in advance but assemble wraps just before serving to prevent sogginess.
