To achieve the perfect creamy cilantro chicken wrap, the first step lies in the preparation of the chicken. Even coating is essential to ensure that every bite is flavorful. Start by cutting your chicken breast into uniform pieces; this helps them cook evenly. Once cut, marinate the chicken in a mixture of Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, cilantro, and your choice of spices (like cumin and paprika).

Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large flour tortillas (or your favorite wraps)

1 cup shredded lettuce

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or a Mexican blend)

Optional: slices of fresh avocado and jalapeños for added heat

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, blend together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, finely chopped cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy, forming your delightful cilantro sauce.

    In a separate bowl, combine the shredded chicken with half of the cilantro sauce, drizzling it over the chicken. Toss gently until the chicken is fully coated in the sauce. Set the remaining sauce aside for serving.

      On a clean, flat surface, lay out the flour tortillas. Spread a generous amount of the reserved cilantro sauce across the center of each tortilla, ensuring it is well-distributed.

        Begin layering by adding shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheese on top of the cilantro sauce.

          Distribute the cilantro-coated chicken evenly across the tortillas, placing it on top of the layered vegetables.

            For those who enjoy extra flavor and heat, add slices of avocado and jalapeños on top of the chicken.

              To wrap, carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling, then roll from the bottom up to create a firm wrap. Secure with a toothpick if necessary to hold everything in place.

                Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling until all are assembled.

                  Serve the wraps immediately, accompanied by the extra cilantro sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy the fresh and zesty flavors of your creamy wraps!
