Ingredients

2 pieces large flour tortillas (burrito or wrap size)
300 g chicken breast (cut into fajitas or thin strips)
1 cup orejona or romaine lettuce (cleaned, disinfected and chopped)
1 piece ripe tomato (seedless and cut into small cubes)
4 slices Swiss or mozzarella cheese (which melts easily)
1 tablespoon olive oil (to cook the chicken)
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise or Caesar dressing (to spread on the tortilla)
1 pinch garlic powder, salt and pepper (to season the chicken)

Instructions

1

Season the chicken breast strips with salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
2

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken strips for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from heat.
3

Spread the flour tortillas on a clean surface and spread a tablespoon of light mayonnaise or Caesar dressing in the center of each one.
4

Place a bed of chopped lettuce in the center, followed by the tomato cubes and the hot chicken strips.
5

Cover the chicken with the cheese slices so that it begins to soften in the residual heat.
6

Fold the side ends of the tortilla toward the center and then roll tightly from the bottom to seal the wrap completely.
7

Heat a fluted skillet or grill over medium heat. Place the wraps fold side down and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until the tortilla is crispy and shows golden grill marks.
8

Remove from the grill, cut diagonally in half and serve immediately while the cheese is melted.
