Wraps that you really want to eat in warm weather: soft but firm, full of flavor, with a crunch of iceberg lettuce, the creamy touch of avocado, Grilled Mexican chicken, spicy Tabasco (for those who like it) and that irresistible taste of TOPIKÁ olive oil!
Ingredients (for 2 persons)
-
4 large wraps (wheat, whole wheat or vegetable, your choice)
-
4 handfuls of iceberg lettuce, coarsely chopped
-
8–12 preserved cherry tomatoes, drizzled with TOPIKÁ Original olive oil
-
1 ripe avocado, chopped
-
2–3 tablespoons sour cream mixed with a tablespoon of TOPIKÁ Original olive oil
-
Tabasco to taste for the spicy eaters
-
2 large chicken fillets
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon cumin powder (for that Mexican touch)
-
Caramelized Onion
- 1 large red onion, sliced into rings
- 1 tablespoon dark rum
- 1–2 teaspoons TOPIKÁ Original olive oil for frying
Preparation method
- Start by preparing the red onion. Heat a little oil or butter in a skillet and sauté the onion rings over low heat until soft and translucent. Add the dark rum and let the onions caramelize gently, stirring regularly. This will develop that deep, sweet flavor that gives any wrap a real flavor boost.
- Meanwhile, prepare the chicken breasts. Season them generously with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of cumin for that subtle Mexican touch. Heat a grill pan or skillet and grill the chicken breasts until golden brown and cooked through. Let them cool slightly, then cut them into thin strips.
- Briefly warm the wraps in a frying pan or microwave until soft and pliable. This will make them easy to roll up without tearing.
- Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each wrap. Let that creamy layer be the first layer of flavor.
- Divide the iceberg lettuce over the wraps and add the pickled cherry tomatoes, so that every bite will have an explosion of sweet and fresh.
- Sprinkle the avocado pieces over the lettuce. Creamy, soft, and packed with healthy fats – this is pure comfort food in a wrap.
- Top with the grilled chicken strips, followed by the caramelized red onion. Together, they create a perfect combination of savory, sweet, and spicy.
- Spoon some sour cream with TOPIKÁ Original olive oil over the toppings. Creamy, slightly tart, and subtly fruity thanks to the olive oil.
- For the daredevils, add a few drops of Tabasco for that spicy kick, delicious with the creamy avocado, sweet onion and savoury chicken.
- Fold the sides of the wrap in slightly and roll it up tightly. If you place it in a frying pan with the seam side down for 1–2 minutes, it will stay nicely sealed and the outside will develop a light crunch.
- Cut diagonally in half for that Instagram-worthy effect. Quick, simple, but every bite bursts with flavor.
This recipe is so easy you can make it any weeknight, but so delicious you can happily serve it to guests. The TOPIKÁ Original olive oil elevates all the flavors and completes the dish perfectly.
