Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Vegetables
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced
- ½ cup red onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil for sautéing
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wrap and Sauce
- 4 tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
- 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Instructions
- Preheat and Season: Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts evenly with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
- Cook Chicken: Place the chicken breasts onto the hot grill or skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety and juiciness. Remove and let them rest before slicing to retain moisture.
- Sauté Vegetables: Using the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the minced garlic, sliced bell peppers, and red onion for about 4-5 minutes until they become tender and fragrant.
- Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil until well combined to create a sweet and savory drizzle.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay the sliced chicken evenly on each tortilla, then top with the sautéed vegetables. Drizzle the soy-honey sesame sauce over the filling for added flavor.
- Roll and Serve: Roll the tortillas tightly into wraps, cut them in half if desired, and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- For a gluten-free option, substitute the tortillas with gluten-free wraps.
- You can substitute chicken breasts with turkey or tofu for a different protein.
- Adjust the amount of honey in the sauce for a sweeter or less sweet taste.
- Serve with a side of fresh salad or chips for a more complete meal.
- Leftovers can be wrapped tightly and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
