Instructions

Preheat and Season: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
Cook Chicken: Place the chicken breasts on the grill or skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once cooked, remove them from heat and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain juices.
Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet used for the chicken, add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic, sliced bell peppers, and red onion for about 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
Prepare Sauce: Whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil in a small bowl until well combined, creating a sweet and savory sauce.
Assemble Wraps: Lay out each tortilla flat. Arrange sliced chicken breasts on the tortillas, top with the sautéed veggies, and drizzle the sauce evenly over the fillings.
Wrap and Serve: Roll each tortilla tightly to enclose the fillings, then cut them in half for easier eating. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful chicken veggie wraps.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, substitute tortillas with gluten-free wraps or lettuce leaves.
You can add avocado or fresh herbs like cilantro for extra freshness.
Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure it is safely cooked.
Use whole wheat tortillas for added fiber and nutrients.
Leftover wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days but avoid adding the sauce until ready to eat to prevent sogginess.
