Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Wrap and Vegetables

  • 4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat for a healthier option)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce (romaine recommended)
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil until well combined. Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and ensure they are evenly coated. For best flavor, marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably a few hours or overnight in the fridge.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking.
  3. Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken cooks, wash and shred the lettuce, carrots, and slice the bell peppers and green onions. Mix colors of bell peppers for an appealing visual and shred the lettuce and carrots to add crunch and ease of eating.
  4. Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a generous amount of shredded lettuce in the center, followed by sliced cooked chicken, shredded carrots, bell peppers, and chopped green onions. Add any optional ingredients if desired. Roll up the tortilla tightly to form the wrap.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to develop, or marinate overnight for deeper taste.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is fully cooked and safe to eat.
  • Resting the chicken after cooking helps keep it juicy and tender.
  • Feel free to add other fresh vegetables like cucumbers or avocado slices for extra nutrition and flavor.
  • Whole wheat tortillas offer a healthier alternative to traditional flour tortillas.
