CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE WRAP



Chicken and Vegetable Wrap image

Much of the pleasure of eating this wrap comes from the crunchy textures of the lettuce and the shredded vegetables. If you poach and shred a couple of chicken breasts at the beginning of the week, then these wraps are quickly thrown together.

Time 15m

Yield Two wraps

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 flour tortillas
4 to 6 romaine lettuce leaves, cut away from the ribs
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/4 cup cucumber, cut in julienne (take several thin slices of cucumber, stack them and cut them in thin strips)
1/8 sweet red pepper, cut in very thin strips
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 avocado, sliced
1/2 to 3/4 shredded poached chicken breast
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
Optional: cilantro, basil, tarragon, other herbs

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the lettuce and toss together. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Warm a large flour tortilla for about 10 seconds in the microwave or over a burner, just until flexible. Lay it on your work surface and cover with lettuce leaves, leaving a two-inch border all the way around. Place half the chicken mixture over the lettuce in a strip on the bottom half of the tortilla. Spoon some of the juices from the bottom of the bowl over the lettuce.
  • Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over the filling. Fold in the sides, then roll up, squeezing the tortilla so that the roll is compact. Place the roll on a piece of plastic wrap. Fold in the sides of the plastic over the ends of the wrap, and roll up tightly to secure. Repeat with the remaining tortilla, lettuce and filling. Refrigerate for at least five minutes and for as long as 24 hours.

Serve any leftover roasted vegetables as garnish. For a healthier wrap, omit the mayonnaise.

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cooked chicken breast, shredded
3 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)
1 small head of garlic
1 small beet
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 small sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 small parsnip, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 small zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons
1 small yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces green beans, cut into 1-inch lengths
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small Vidalia onion, cut into 1/8-inch half moons
4 wraps or flour tortillas
3 ounces Asiago cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the shredded chicken and mayonnaise, if using, and set aside. Drizzle the head of garlic and beet with 1 tablespoon olive oil for each, and wrap each separately in foil. Place in the oven to cook until tender, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool. When cool enough to handle, peel beet, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces; set aside. Squeeze garlic from skins; set aside.
  • Place the sweet potato, parsnip, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl, and toss to combine. Place the mixture in a large roasting pan in the oven, and roast, turning vegetables as necessary, until vegetables are starting to soften, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile place zucchini, yellow pepper, red pepper, beans, apple, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl, and toss to combine. Add to the partly roasted vegetables, and continue to roast until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes more. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet set over medium-low heat. Add the Vidalia onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is very soft, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside.
  • Spread a quarter of the reserved roasted garlic on the center of each wrap. Divide the chicken, reserved beet, and roasted vegetables among the four wraps. Sprinkle each with a quarter of the cheese. Roll each wrap tightly in waxed or parchment paper, and slice in half before serving.

MEDITERRANEAN VEGETABLE AND CHICKEN SANDWICH WRAP



Mediterranean Vegetable and Chicken Sandwich Wrap image

I am not claiming this to be authentic Mediterranean but I got that 'vibe' when I was picking out what veggies I wanted to go in it. I think this would actually work really well even if you left the chicken out and went for a fully veggie option.
