How to Make Spicy Chicken and Avocado Wraps
- In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the seasoned chicken. Sauté for about 5 minutes until heated through.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare your tortillas by laying them flat on a clean surface.
- Spread a generous layer of spicy mayo over each tortilla.
- Add a handful of fresh spinach leaves to the center of each tortilla.
- Layer the sautéed chicken on top of the spinach, followed by slices of avocado.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a wrap.
- Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately, or wrap them in foil for later.
Tips for the Best Results
- For added crunch, include some shredded carrots or diced bell peppers in the wraps.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of sriracha in the spicy mayo.
- For a smoky flavor, consider grilling the chicken instead of sautéing it.
- Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier twist.
Easy Variations
- Switch out the chicken for grilled shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
- Add cheese, such as shredded cheddar or pepper jack, for extra creaminess.
- Substitute spinach with mixed greens or kale for a different texture.
- Experiment with different sauces like chipotle mayo or a tangy yogurt dressing.
What to Serve With It
- A side of tortilla chips and salsa for crunch.
- A fresh garden salad with a vinaigrette dressing.
- Sweet potato fries for a satisfying side.
- A light fruit salad for a refreshing finish.
