Yield 4-6 Sundried Tomato Wrap

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pkgs. (pre-cooked) grilled Italian style chicken breast, chopped
1/3 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon Garlic, minced
1/2 Cup Sundried Tomatoes, chopped
1/2 Cup Black Olives, chopped
1/4 Cup Fresh Italian Herbs, minced
1/4 Cup Capers
1/2 Cup Feta Cheese, crumbled
1 teaspoon fresh cracked Black Pepper
Kosher Salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Chop the chicken. Throw all the ingredients together in a mixing bowl, making sure all the flavors are distributed evenly. Lay the tortillas on a flat work surface and divide the mixture among them. Roll them tightly securing both ends. When you are ready to serve them, slice on a bias. Note: you can use grilled chicken or any of the precooked chicken breast products. I have also used pita pockets instead of tortillas. I like the tortillas better.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh, organic ingredients are always a good choice, but you can also use high-quality frozen or canned ingredients.
  • To make your wraps more flavorful, try marinating the chicken ahead of time. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs, or you can get creative and try something different.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it's cooked through but still juicy. If you overcook it, it will become dry and tough.
  • To make your wraps easier to roll, warm the tortillas before you fill them. You can do this by microwaving them for a few seconds or by heating them in a skillet over low heat.
  • Don't overload the wraps. Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and eat. Aim for a moderate amount of filling so that you can enjoy the flavors of all the ingredients.

Conclusion:

Italian chicken wraps are a delicious and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Italian chicken wraps a try!
