Description
Delicious teriyaki chicken wraps filled with fresh vegetables for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pieces Chicken Breast or Thighs (Substitute with tofu or tempeh for vegetarian option.)
- 1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce (Consider using homemade sauce for freshness.)
- 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (Choose low-sodium versions for health.)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (Maple syrup for vegan substitute.)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil (Olive oil can be used, but changes flavor.)
- 4 pieces Tortillas (Flour or Whole Wheat) (Gluten-free tortillas are suitable for gluten avoidance.)
- 1 cup Lettuce (Romaine or iceberg work well.)
- 1 cup Carrots (Shredding or julienning recommended.)
- 1 cup Bell Peppers (Mix colors or swap for cucumbers.)
- 1/4 cup Green Onions (Shallots or chives can serve as alternatives.)
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Add chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. Carefully place the marinated chicken in the skillet, cooking for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked.
- While the chicken is cooking, wash and chop the lettuce, carrots, bell peppers, and green onions. Keep the colors bright for a fresh, appealing wrap!
- Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Start with a layer of lettuce, followed by sliced chicken, vibrant veggies, and any additional toppings you desire. Roll it tightly to seal in all the deliciousness before serving.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu or tempeh.
- Homemade teriyaki sauce can enhance freshness.
- Consider using low-sodium soy sauce for a healthier choice.
- Maple syrup can be used as a vegan substitute for honey.
- Olive oil can replace sesame oil for cooking but will alter the flavor.
