A refreshing, protein-packed take on lettuce wraps, using iceberg for the perfect crunch. Perfect for lunch, dinner or as a snack. This makes about 4 servings.
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast 
- 1/2 tsp salt 
- 1/4 tsp black pepper 
- 1/2 tsp paprika 
- 1 tbsp olive oil 
- 1 cup Greek yogurt 
- 1/2 tbsp mayo 
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard 
- 2 tbsp dried chives 
- 1/2 tsp soy sauce 
- Pinch of cayenne pepper 
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan 
- 1/2 lime, juiced 
- 1/2 medium red onion, finely diced 
- Iceberg lettuce leaves (large, whole pieces) 
- 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage 
- 1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar 
- Pinch of salt 
- 1/2 cup carrot, julienned 
- avocado, sliced 
Instructions
- Cook the chicken by preheating the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the whole chicken breast with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika. Bake on a tray for 20–25 minutes, or until fully cooked. Let the chicken rest for 5–10 minutes, then dice into small pieces. 
- Make the creamy mixture by combining Greek yogurt, mayo, Dijon mustard, dried chives, soy sauce, cayenne, Parmesan, lime juice, and diced red onion in a bowl. Fold in the diced, cooked chicken until well coated. 
- Prepare the cabbage by tossing the shredded red cabbage with balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt. Let sit for a few minutes to soften. 
- Assemble the wraps by stacking two iceberg lettuce leaves on top of each other for extra sturdiness. Spoon in a generous amount of the creamy chicken mixture. Layer with balsamic-dressed cabbage, followed by julienned carrots and avocado slices. Fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito. 
- Wrap in parchment paper and slice in half before serving to reduce mess.
