Ingredients
  

For the Grilled Chicken:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the Mango Salsa:

1 ripe mango, diced into small cubes

1/2 red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (adjust for spice level)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

A pinch of salt, to taste

For Assembly:

4 large flour tortillas (substitute with whole wheat for a healthier option)

1 cup romaine lettuce, shredded

1 avocado, sliced

Optional: Greek yogurt or sour cream for drizzling

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.

      - Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are thoroughly coated in the marinade. Cover and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours for a more intense flavor.

        Prepare the Mango Salsa:

          - In a separate mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and lime juice.

            - Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the mixture and stir gently to combine all ingredients. Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning if needed. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld for about 10-15 minutes.

              Grill the Chicken:

                - Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts.

                  - Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). This should result in juicy, well-cooked chicken.

                    - After grilling, remove the chicken and let it rest for about 5 minutes on a cutting board before slicing it thinly against the grain.

                      Assemble the Wraps:

                        - Lay a large tortilla on a clean, flat surface. Start layering with a generous amount of shredded romaine lettuce, slices of avocado, thinly sliced grilled chicken, and a generous spoonful of your fresh mango salsa.

                          - Carefully roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to secure all the filling. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas.

                            Serve:

                              - Use a sharp knife to cut each wrap in half diagonally for a polished presentation, and serve immediately. For an extra creamy element, offer Greek yogurt or sour cream on the side to drizzle over the wraps.

                                Prep Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour (including marinating) | Servings: 4 wraps
