Serves 1
4 oz (113 g) cooked, shredded chicken breast (about the size of a deck of cards)
1 large whole-wheat or low-carb tortilla/wrap
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1/4 cup diced cucumber/bell peppers*
1 1/2 tbsp 0% Greek yoghurt
1/2 tsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Ingredients
Notes:
* You can use any vegetables here.
- Instead of the Greek yogurt you can use hummus or a low fat mayonnaise
1. Shred a portion of chicken breast.
2. In a small bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the Greek yogurt (or hummus) and all the seasonings (lemon juice, pepper, etc.). Mix until the chicken is lightly coated.
3. (Optional) Lightly warm your tortilla in a dry skillet for 10–15 seconds on each side. This makes it more pliable and easier to roll.
4. Lay the warm wrap flat. Place the shredded lettuce and diced vegetables in the centre.
5. Spoon the seasoned chicken mixture directly over the vegetables.
6. Roll tightly. Fold in the left and right sides of the tortilla first, then fold up the bottom edge, pulling it back slightly to make the filling tight. Roll forward firmly until the wrap is complete.
7. Slice in half and enjoy immediately.
