Ingredients
  

For the chicken
  • 1 pound boneless and skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive or avocado oil For cooking
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder For seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt For seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper For seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder For seasoning
For the wrap
  • 6 pieces flour tortilla wraps (8 inches)
  • ½ cup salsa
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese Can substitute with other cheeses
  • 2 pieces avocados Sliced

Method
 

Cooking the Chicken
  1. Heat the olive or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the top of the boneless chicken breasts generously with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chili powder.
  3. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and sauté for about 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it cool slightly before slicing it into strips.
Assembling the Wraps
  1. Lay the flour tortillas flat and divide the salsa evenly, spreading it down the center of each tortilla.
  2. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the salsa and add the sliced avocados.
  3. Top with the sliced chicken and wrap by folding the bottom of the tortilla up and then folding in the sides.
Grilling
  1. Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet and press gently while cooking for about 3 to 4 minutes, flipping once until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serving
  1. Serve the Grilled Avocado Chicken Wraps immediately, ideally with a side of salsa or sour cream.

Notes

For added depth of flavor, marinate the chicken in spices a few hours prior to cooking. To streamline meal prep, cook extra chicken for use in salads or other wraps.
