Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts

1 cup breadcrumbs (panko recommended for extra crunch)

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp salt

2 large avocados, halved and pitted

1 cup shredded lettuce (Romaine or iceberg)

1 medium tomato, diced

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

4 whole wheat tortillas (or your choice of wraps)

3 tbsp mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)

1 tbsp lime juice

Optional: fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the chicken: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.

    Coat the chicken: Trim the chicken breasts, then dip each piece into the breadcrumb mixture, coating evenly on all sides. Place on a lined baking sheet.

      Bake the chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

        Prepare the avocado spread: While the chicken is baking, mash the avocados in a bowl, then mix in the lime juice, salt, and a pinch of pepper.

          Assemble the wraps: Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes. Then slice the crispy chicken into strips. On each tortilla, spread a generous layer of the avocado mixture.

            Layer the ingredients: Add a handful of shredded lettuce, diced tomato, red onion slices, and top with the crispy chicken strips.

              Wrap it up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to secure all the fillings.

                Serving: Slice the wraps in half diagonally, garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or salsa!
