# How To Make:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine chipotle in adobo, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and toss to coat thoroughly. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours refrigerated for enhanced flavor.
02 - Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook marinated chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
04 - Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable and ready for assembly.
05 - Layer lettuce, sliced chicken, avocado, red onion, and tomato in the center of each tortilla. Drizzle generously with Greek yogurt sauce.
06 - Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Slice in half and serve immediately.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • The chipotle marinade delivers bold smoky flavor without needing hours of prep or a long ingredient list.
  • Everything comes together in about 35 minutes, making it perfect for busy evenings when you still want real food.
  • The creamy avocado and tangy yogurt sauce balance the heat beautifully, so each bite feels complete.
  • Wraps are endlessly forgiving and fun to customize based on what you have in the fridge.
02 -
  • Do not skip resting the chicken after cooking, those few minutes let the juices redistribute so every slice stays moist and flavorful.
  • Warm your tortillas before assembling or they will crack when you try to roll them, learned that the hard way more than once.
  • If the chipotle is too spicy for your taste, use just the adobo sauce without the peppers for smoky flavor with much less heat.
03 -
  • Slice the chicken while it is still slightly warm, it is easier to cut cleanly and the slices stay tender.
  • If you want extra smoky flavor, char the tortillas lightly over an open flame for a few seconds before assembling.
  • Double the yogurt sauce recipe, it is so good you will want to drizzle it on everything from tacos to salads throughout the week.
