Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts

1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded romaine lettuce

½ cup diced tomatoes

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil (for grilling)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken breasts with ½ cup of BBQ sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Ensure the chicken is well-coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl and allow the chicken to marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes for optimal flavor infusion.

    Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. To prevent sticking, lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil.

      Grill the Chicken: After marinating, remove the chicken breasts from the bowl and discard any remaining marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). For added flavor, brush the chicken with additional BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of grilling to achieve a delicious smoky glaze.

        Rest and Slice: Once the chicken is grilled to perfection, transfer it to a clean plate and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. After resting, slice the chicken into strips.

          Assemble the Wraps: Place a tortilla on a clean, flat surface. Spread a tablespoon of BBQ sauce across the center of the tortilla. Add a generous handful of shredded romaine lettuce, followed by diced tomatoes, red onion slices, and avocado. Top it off with the grilled chicken strips and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.

            Wrap It Up: To form the wrap, fold the sides of the tortilla inward and then roll it tightly from the bottom up, ensuring all the tasty fillings are secured inside. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.

              Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally for a visually appealing presentation. Serve immediately with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.

                - Optional for a Crispy Finish: For an added crunch, you can briefly grill the assembled wraps on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
