How to Make BBQ Grilled Chicken Wraps
  1. Begin by placing your chicken breast in a bowl with BBQ sauce. Allow it to marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to maximize flavor.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side until it develops a beautiful char and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  3. Once grilled to perfection, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. This step ensures the juices are sealed in. Then, slice it into thin, juicy strips.
  4. Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface. Start layering with sliced chicken, vibrant bell peppers, creamy avocado, and a handful of fresh greens for a burst of color.
  5. Tightly roll the tortilla, securing all the delicious fillings. For added convenience, wrap it in foil for easy transport.
  6. Optional: Serve your wraps with a side of fresh fruit for a colorful, balanced meal.

Notes

Store wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Keep wet ingredients separate until ready to eat for maximum freshness.
