Recipe Summary Simple Sweet And Spicy Chicken Wraps
Honey and salsa come together to make an easy summer meal that will rock your taste buds!Ingredients | Mexican Chicken Breast Recipes Healthy
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup finely chopped seedless cucumber
1 tablespoon honey
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into thin strips
1 cup thick and chunky salsa
1 tablespoon honey
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 (10 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
Directions
Mix together the mayonnaise, cucumber, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat, and cook and stir the chicken breast strips until they are beginning to turn golden and are no longer pink in the middle, about 8 minutes. Stir in the salsa, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have blended, about 5 minutes.
Stack the tortillas, 4 at a time, in a microwave oven and heat until warm and pliable, 20 to 30 seconds per batch.
Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise-cucumber mixture, top with a layer of baby spinach leaves, and arrange about 1/2 cup of chicken mixture on the spinach leaves.
Fold the bottom of each tortilla up about 2 inches, and start rolling the burrito from the right side. When the burrito is half-rolled, fold the top of the tortilla down, enclosing the filling, and continue rolling to make a tight, compact cylinder.
