Avocado Chicken Wraps
*
*8-10 Soft Flour Tortillas or Butter Crunch Lettuce Leaves or lettuce leaves of choice
*
*2 bottles La Victoria (medium heat) Salsa Verde Thick’n Chunky, for smothering tortillas
*
Lemon Pepper Marinade
*
*10 Chicken Tenders
*Juice of 1 Lemon, cut in half and save
*Juice of 1 Lime, cut in half and save
*1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper, to taste
*2 teaspoons Bottled Minced Garlic
*1-2 tablespoon Honey
*Pinch Kosher Salt
*Gallon size re-sealable Plastic Bag
*
Add the above ingredients into the plastic bag, make sure to add the halved lemon and lime. (In the order listed). Seal bag and squish/message ingredients in the bag mixing everything together.
*
Place the filled bag of chicken the fridge for two hours.
*
Remove the chicken from the bag and discard the marinade.
*
Grill the chicken on a George Forman or grill.
*
Grill 3-4 minutes on both sides or until no longer pink inside and slice into bite size pieces. (I like to place the grilled chicken in a frying pan with lid with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil on medium-low heat and steam for 5-6 minutes. Then add a small amount of water to de-glaze the pan and keeping the lid on and allow the chicken to rest 2 minutes or so, remove the chicken to a cutting board and slice into bite size pieces. Pour over chicken the glaze/juices from the pan for extra flavor.)
*
Avocado Topping
*
*4 large ripe Avocados, peeled and cut into bite size pieces
*Juice of 2 Small Limes
*1 bottled Roasted Pepper, cut into bite size pieces
*1 tablespoon minced Red Onion
*1 Clove Garlic, pressed or minced
*Cilantro, whole leaves or chopped, optional to taste
*Pinch Kosher Salt
*
In a glass bowl toss together the above ingredients except for the cilantro, cover with topping with Saran Wrap so that no air can get the avocado topping and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
*
Assemble Wraps
*
Layer on the tortilla or lettuce the sliced chicken pieces, avocado toppings do cilantro leaves. (If using tortillas smother the wraps after wrapping/rolling up avocado chicken wraps) .
Enjoy!
