Southwest Chicken Wrap

When it comes to mealtimes at my home, particularly on hectic weekdays, I prefer to prepare simple and quick lunch or dinner recipes. Among our favorite choices are these southwest chicken wraps, which have gained popularity in no time. Packed with protein from the chicken, these wraps serve as a satisfying meal that even incorporates some vegetables. By combining flavorful chicken with nutritious veggies, these wraps offer a versatile option for a wholesome and balanced dish. Enhancing the taste is a delightful homemade dressing that perfectly complements the chicken wraps.

This Southwest chicken wrap is incredibly convenient to prepare, making it suitable for both a swift dinner and a lunch on the go. To assemble this wrap, begin by baking the chicken strips. I typically use frozen chicken strips, unless I have some homemade chicken leftovers on hand. While the chicken is in the oven, you can prepare the dressing by combining mayonnaise, milk, salsa, taco seasoning, and cumin. Once the dressing is ready, you can sauté the corn in a skillet until it becomes nicely browned. After that, it’s just a matter of assembling the wrap. Place the chicken, dressing, corn, black beans, lettuce, tomato, and cheese onto a tortilla, and voila! Your delicious wrap is now ready to be enjoyed.
