Ingredients

250 g chicken breast (or boneless, skinless chicken breasts pounded thin)
100 g lettuce

150 g tomato
100 g red cabbage

1/2 small avocado
4 tbsp chipotle sauce

4 low carb flour tortillas
50 g shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tsp taco seasoning

Salt to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and taco seasoning.
Step 2: Grill the chicken until cooked through and grill marks appear on both sides. Remove from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.

Step 3: Wash and slice the lettuce, tomato, red cabbage, and avocado.
Step 4: Warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet until pliable.
Step 5: Spread about 1 tablespoon (12.5 g) of chipotle sauce onto each tortilla.

Step 6: Layer grilled chicken strips, lettuce, tomato, red cabbage, avocado slices, and shredded mozzarella cheese on each tortilla.
Step 7: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly to form a burrito.
Step 8: (Optional) Grill the assembled burritos for a few minutes on each side to toast and melt the cheese.

Step 9: Serve warm with extra chipotle sauce if desired.

Tips & Variations

Try adding black beans or corn for extra texture and flavor.
For a milder taste, reduce the amount of chipotle sauce or substitute with a creamy ranch dressing.

Use shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese instead of mozzarella for a different flavor profile.

Storage

Store any leftover burritos wrapped tightly in foil or plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to keep the tortilla crisp, avoiding the microwave if possible to prevent sogginess.
