A high-protein, fat-loss-friendly wrap featuring tender marinated chicken breast, crunchy vegetables, and a soul-soothing sweet and spicy peanut butter sauce.

Ingredients

• 200 g chicken breast
• 1 whole whole wheat tortilla
• 2 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
• 1 tbsp honey
• 0.5 tbsp chili oil
• 50 g purple cabbage
• 50 g carrots
• 30 g fresh lettuce
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

1. 1Season the chicken breasts

   

   Place the chicken breasts in a white dish and season them thoroughly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, honey, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

   Tip: Marinating the chicken overnight ensures it absorbs all the rich flavors and stays exceptionally tender.
2. 2Add olive oil

   

   Pour olive oil over the seasoned chicken breasts in the dish to lock in moisture and flavor.

   Tip: Make sure to distribute the oil evenly across the chicken pieces.
3. 3Prepare the peanut butter sauce

   

   Add crunchy peanut butter, honey, and chili oil to a small white bowl, then mix with water to achieve the desired consistency.

   Tip: Add water gradually to thin out the peanut butter sauce smoothly.
4. 4Shred vegetables

   

   Shred purple cabbage and carrots into a bowl using a vegetable peeler or shredder.

   Tip: Add a little salt to the shredded vegetables to draw out excess water, then squeeze them dry.
5. 5Sear the chicken

   

   Place the seasoned chicken breast slices into a hot pan with oil to pan-sear them until golden brown.

   Tip: Heat the oil properly before adding the chicken to get a nice golden crust.
6. 6Steam the chicken

   

   Add a little water to the pan with the seared chicken, then cover with a lid to steam for two minutes.

   Tip: Steaming for two minutes ensures the chicken stays juicy and fully cooked inside.
7. 7Slice the cooked chicken

   

   Transfer the golden-brown cooked chicken breast onto a checkered wooden cutting board and slice it into neat strips using a white-handled chefs knife.

   Tip: Let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes before slicing to lock in the juices.
8. 8Assemble the Wrap

   

   Spread the sweet and spicy peanut butter sauce evenly onto the whole wheat tortilla, then layer the sliced chicken, cabbage, and fresh lettuce on top.

   Tip: Spread the sauce close to the edges to ensure every bite is flavorful and helps hold the fillings together.
9. 9Roll the wrap

   

   Carefully fold and roll up the whole wheat tortilla containing the chicken and fresh vegetables to create a tight and secure wrap.

   Tip: Tuck the sides in firmly as you roll to prevent the filling from spilling out.
10. 10Toast the wrap

    

    Place the rolled tortilla wrap into a hot pan and toast each side until it turns crispy and golden brown.

    Tip: Toast over medium-low heat so the tortilla gets crispy without burning.
