Description
Create a delicious Teriyaki Chicken Wrap with this simple recipe.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup sliced cucumbers
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- ½ cup sliced green onions
- to taste sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
- to taste olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine chicken breasts with teriyaki sauce. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes for the best flavor.
- Heat the pan: In a skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat.
- Cook the chicken: Remove chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and place it in the heated skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
- Add marinade: Pour the reserved teriyaki marinade over the cooked chicken and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Slice the chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Then, slice it into thin strips.
- Assemble the wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Start by adding a layer of shredded lettuce, followed by sliced cucumbers, shredded carrots, red bell pepper, and green onions.
- Add chicken: Place the sliced teriyaki chicken on top of the vegetables.
- Wrap it up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and then roll it from the bottom up to create a wrap.
- Garnish: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch and flavor.
- Serve: Cut the wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap it in foil for later.
Notes
- This dish is quick and easy to prepare, making it great for a weeknight dinner.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or swap the chicken for tofu for a vegetarian version.
