Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb chicken breast, sliced into thin strips
  • Optional: tofu or tempeh for vegetarian variation

Sauce & Seasoning

  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tsp oil (for cooking)
  • Optional: garlic, ginger, lime juice to customize sauce

Wrap & Fillings

  • 46 soft flour or whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup bell peppers, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup leafy greens (lettuce, kale, or baby spinach)
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Optional: sliced jalapeños for spice
  • Optional: toasted sesame seeds for garnish
  • Optional: chopped peanuts or crispy fried onions for crunch

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. Heat 1 tsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Glaze with Teriyaki Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Stir often to coat every piece well. Allow the sauce to thicken slightly, creating a glossy glaze.
  3. Prep the Wrap Ingredients: While the chicken cooks, slice bell peppers, shred carrots, chop green onions, and prepare leafy greens. Warm tortillas slightly to make them pliable.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a warm tortilla flat, layer on the glazed chicken, fresh vegetables, and sprinkle with sesame seeds if using. Roll tightly to secure all ingredients inside.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Slice the wrap in half if desired and serve immediately with your favorite sides or dips.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken in teriyaki sauce for 15-30 minutes before cooking for enhanced flavor.
  • Avoid overcooking chicken to keep it juicy and tender.
  • Warm tortillas slightly to prevent cracking and ease wrapping.
  • Balance soft chicken with crunchy veggies for an enjoyable texture contrast.
  • Customize the teriyaki sauce by adding garlic, ginger, or a squeeze of lime.
