Wrap Filling
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast rotisserie chicken works wonderfully
- 1/3 cup mango chutney store-bought or homemade
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt substitute mayonnaise if preferred
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/3 cup diced celery
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro parsley works as an alternative if you're cilantro-averse
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- salt and black pepper to taste
For Assembly
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas or low-carb wraps for a lighter option
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 1 ripe avocado sliced
Combine the shredded chicken, mango chutney, Greek yogurt, and lime juice in a medium bowl. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the dressing.
Fold in the diced red onion, celery, and cilantro.
Sprinkle in the curry powder and cumin, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Let this mixture rest for at least 5 minutes before assembling the wraps.
Briefly heat each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 10 seconds per side to make them more pliable.
Place a warmed tortilla on a flat surface and layer with 1/2 cup of fresh spinach leaves. Spoon approximately 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture onto the spinach, followed by a few slices of avocado.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up, tucking in the sides as you go. If serving immediately, slice diagonally for an appealing presentation.
The chicken mixture keeps excellently in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, actually improving in flavor as the ingredients meld.
For meal prep, store the chicken mixture separately from the tortillas and greens, assembling just before eating.
If you've already made complete wraps, wrap them individually in parchment paper, then aluminum foil, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
