Steps:
- Mix the chicken with the lime juice, chilli powder and garlic.
- Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan then fry the chicken for a couple of mins - it will cook very quickly so keep an eye on it. Meanwhile, warm the wraps following the pack instructions or, if you have a gas hob, heat them over the flame to slightly char them. Do not let them dry out or they are difficult to roll.
- Squash half an avocado onto each wrap, add the peppers to the pan to warm them through then pile onto the wraps with the chicken, and sprinkle over the coriander. Roll up, cut in half and eat with your fingers.

SHREDDED-CHICKEN WRAPS WITH AVOCADO, CUCUMBER, AND CILANTRO
Steps:
- Chop onion. In a 2-quart heavy saucepan cook onion and chicken legs in butter over moderate heat, stirring, 5 minutes. Drain tomatoes and measure 1 cup packed, reserving remainder for another use. Stir tomatoes into chicken mixture with water, cayenne to taste, and cumin and simmer, covered, 1 hour. Working over pan, pull meat off bones with tongs, returning it to pan, and discard bones. Simmer chicken mixture, uncovered, until most liquid is evaporated, about 20 minutes. Stir in salt and cool chicken mixture. Chicken mixture may be made 1 day ahead and cooled completely before being chilled, covered. Bring mixture to room temperature before proceeding.
- Halve cucumber lengthwise and crosswise and seed. Cut pieces lengthwise into very thin strips. In a bowl toss cucumber with 1 tablespoon lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Halve, peel, and pit avocado. Cut avocado into 1/4-inch-thick slices. In a small bowl toss avocado with remaining lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
- Cut 1 inch off 1 edge of each tortilla. On a work surface arrange 1 tortilla with cut edge farthest from you and smear a small piece of avocado lengthwise along cut edge of tortilla (this will help the "wrap" hold together). Spread about one fourth chicken mixture across lower fourth of tortilla about 1 inch from bottom. Top chicken mixture with 1/2 cup cilantro sprigs. Top cilantro with 4 or 5 avocado slices and top avocado with about one fourth cucumber. Beginning with bottom edge, tightly roll up tortilla and arrange seam side down on work surface. Make 3 more wraps with remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, cilantro, avocado, and cucumber. Wraps may be made 6 hours ahead and chilled, individually wrapped in plastic wrap. Cut wraps on a slight diagonal into *-inch-thick slices and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose lean chicken breasts for a healthier wrap.
- Use whole-wheat tortillas or lettuce wraps for a more nutritious option.
- Load your wrap with plenty of fresh vegetables for added vitamins and minerals.
- Use a light hand with the dressing to avoid making your wrap too soggy.
- Enjoy your wrap immediately, or wrap it tightly and store it in the refrigerator for later.
