For the Chicken:
- 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
For the Wrap:
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)
- 1 cup (150g) shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup (165g) canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup (165g) canned corn, drained
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup (15g) chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup (60ml) sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup (60ml) salsa (mild, medium, or hot)
- Cook the Chicken: Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat and spread 1 tbsp of sour cream and 1 tbsp of salsa in the center. Add a layer of shredded cheese, sliced chicken, black beans, corn, diced tomato, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
- Wrap and Roll: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top, like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Serve: Slice the wraps in half and serve with extra salsa or guacamole on the side.
