Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 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
- 4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat for a healthier option)
- 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Optional Add-ons
- Avocado slices
- Pickled ginger
- Edamame
- Sesame seeds
- Spicy mayo or sriracha
Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: In a medium bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil until well combined. Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. For best results, marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight in the fridge using a zip-top bag.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. When hot, add the marinated chicken breasts. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest a few minutes before slicing.
- Prepare the Vegetables: While chicken cooks, wash and shred the romaine lettuce and carrots. Slice the bell peppers and chop the green onions. Optionally prepare any additional toppings like avocado slices, pickled ginger, or edamame.
- Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Add a generous layer of shredded lettuce, followed by sliced cooked chicken, carrots, bell peppers, and green onions. Add any optional toppings as desired. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Wrap in parchment paper if serving to a crowd.
Notes
- Marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes to infuse flavor, longer for more depth.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is cooked safely to 165°F (75°C).
- Rest the chicken after cooking to maintain juiciness.
- Customize wraps with optional add-ons to suit your taste preferences.
- Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier alternative.
- Wrap in parchment paper for easy handling and presentation when serving multiple wraps.
