These Sweet Chili Chicken Wraps are a quick, flavorful meal perfect for lunch or dinner. Juicy, pan-cooked chicken breasts are paired with a tangy homemade sweet chili sauce, fresh veggies, and crisp lettuce, all wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla for a satisfying and healthy meal option.

Ingredients

Chicken and Marinade

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice

Wrap and Veggies

  • 4 whole wheat tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers and carrots), sliced
  • 1 cup lettuce leaves (romaine or butter), washed and dried
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking chicken)

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Cook Chicken: Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Cook the chicken breasts for 7-8 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, remove from heat and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
  2. Make the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the sweet chili sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, and fresh lime juice. Stir well to blend all the flavors into a tangy, sweet, and slightly spicy sauce.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface. On each tortilla, place a good amount of sliced chicken, a handful of mixed bell peppers and carrots, and some fresh lettuce leaves. Drizzle the prepared sauce evenly over the fillings.
  4. Wrap and Serve: Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly to secure all ingredients inside. Slice each wrap diagonally for easy handling and serving. Serve immediately with extra dipping sauce on the side if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken with the minced garlic and half of the sauce mixture for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you prefer a spicier wrap, add a dash of sriracha or chili flakes to the sauce.
  • These wraps can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Keep sauce separate to avoid sogginess.
  • Substitute whole wheat tortillas with gluten-free wraps if needed.
  • To make it more filling, add avocado slices or shredded cheese inside the wraps.
