  • 1/2 Tablespoon Oil
  • 1.5 tsp. Mesquite Seasoning McCormick Grill Mates
  • 1 Large Tortilla or Wrap low carb if you prefer
  • 1 oz Mild Cheddar Cheese or any other that you prefer
  • 1/4 cup Mixed Greens any greens would do
  • 3 tablespoons Salsa

Salsa- 2 cups

  • 1/4 Onion yellow or red, chopped
  • 1 pound fresh ripe tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 1 Jalapeño or to taste, minced, seeds removed
  • 4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or use parsley as a sub

Special Sauce:

  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 Ripe Avocado pureed

Instructions

  1. Cut Chicken in strips, oil all over and rub the Mesquite seasoning on the chicken breast. Place on the preheated grill (or you can pan fry it, just add a bit of oil in the pan). Cook on both sides until golden, about 3 minutes per side, depending on how thick strips are.
  2. Once the chicken is done, set aside and start dicing salsa. Try to keep everything the same size, and leftover salsa could be placed in the container and in the fridge.

  3. Combine everything for the sauce and mix until smooth. You may use back or the fork or a spoon to smash the avocado. This can also serve as a dip.

  4. If you are using a grill, place tortilla on the grill, add cheese and chicken, let the cheese completely melt, few minutes. You may use a Microwave or preheated oven.
  5. Add salsa on top, drizzle with a special sauce to your preference Wrap it up and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

You can use whatever type of salsa you like! This is my standard that I enjoy with many meals, and dressing is my basic dressing and a personal favorite!

When cooking chicken, the internal temperature should be between 165F-170F This also could be added in Pita Bread or Italian Bread type of bread. Refrigerate leftover salsa.

Salsa and Sauce serve more than one. Make more chicken or extra servings.

Unused salsa and sauce should be refrigerated.
