Ingredients

Protein

  • Chicken breast or thighs, boneless and skinless (about 1 lb)
  • Teriyaki sauce (½ cup)

Wrap Base

  • Flour tortillas (4-6 soft and pliable)

Vegetables

  • Shredded carrots (1 cup)
  • Sliced bell peppers (1 cup)
  • Crunchy cabbage, shredded (1 cup)
  • Green onions, chopped (2-3 stalks)

Additional Ingredients

  • Olive oil or cooking spray (1 tbsp for sautéing)
  • Sesame seeds (optional, 1 tsp for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken into thin strips for quick, even cooking. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil or cooking spray. Add the chicken strips and cook 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  2. Add Teriyaki Sauce: Pour teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken, stirring to coat. Simmer for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the chicken.
  3. Prepare the Veggies: While the chicken simmers, roughly chop or shred the carrots, bell peppers, cabbage, and green onions to add fresh crunch and balance.
  4. Warm the Tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable to prevent tearing during wrapping.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a warm tortilla flat, add a generous scoop of teriyaki chicken, top with chopped veggies, and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Fold the sides over and roll tightly.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Cut the wrap diagonally in half for easy handling and serve immediately, pairing with dips or enjoying as is.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken in teriyaki sauce for 15-30 minutes before cooking for extra flavor.
  • Avoid overcooking chicken to keep it tender and juicy.
  • Use fresh, crisp vegetables to balance the sweetness of the sauce.
  • Properly warm tortillas to prevent cracking when rolling.
  • Reserve some teriyaki sauce to drizzle on wraps after assembling if you like extra sauce.
