Ingredients
Protein
- Chicken breast, skinless and boneless, 2 breasts
- Smoky turkey bacon, 4 slices
Vegetables and Greens
- Fresh mixed greens, 2 cups
- Cherry tomatoes, halved, 1 cup
- Red onion, thinly sliced, 1 small
Dairy Alternatives
- Plant-based cheese, shredded, 1/2 cup
Wraps
- Soft flour tortillas, 4 large
Seasonings and Sauces
- Vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), 2 tablespoons
- Garlic powder, 1 teaspoon
- Smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon
- Olive oil, 2 tablespoons
- Apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breast into thin strips. Season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat the chicken pieces with olive oil to help them crisp evenly during cooking.
- Cook the Turkey Bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the smoky turkey bacon until crisp. Remove from pan and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil for extra crunch.
- Crisp the Chicken: In the same skillet, add the chicken strips and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the outside, yet tender inside. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking and full flavor development.
- Prepare the Veggies: While the chicken cooks, rinse the mixed greens. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and thinly slice the red onions to add fresh, crisp layers to the wrap.
- Warm the Tortillas: Warm the flour tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable, making them easier to fold without cracking.
- Assemble Your Crispy Chicken Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat. Add a handful of mixed greens, then layer chicken strips, crispy turkey bacon, cherry tomatoes, and red onions. Sprinkle with plant-based cheese and drizzle with vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) and a splash of apple cider vinegar for a tangy finish.
- Wrap It Up: Fold the edges of the tortilla over the fillings, then roll tightly to form a compact, handheld wrap ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and maintain chicken crispiness without extra oil.
- Cook chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, ensuring even browning and crispiness.
- Pat dry mixed greens and tomatoes to prevent soggy wraps.
- Warm tortillas properly to make them flexible and prevent cracking when folding.
- Let bacon cool on paper towels to absorb excess oil and maximize crunch.
