• ½ teaspoon chili powder

How to Make a Grilled Chicken Wrap with Chipotle Mayo:

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
   Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with a blend of smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and rub the spices evenly onto the chicken.
2. Grill to Perfection:
   Heat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
3. Make the Chipotle Mayo:
   While the chicken is grilling, mix your chipotle mayo. Combine mayonnaise with a dash of adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers. Adjust the spice level to your liking—start with a teaspoon of adobo sauce and add more if you’re feeling bold!
4. Assemble the Wraps:
   Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of chipotle mayo down the center of each tortilla. Add shredded lettuce, diced tomato, sliced red onion, shredded cheddar cheese, and the sliced grilled chicken.
5. Wrap It Up:
   Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up. Slice the wrap in half diagonally for an attractive presentation.

Helpful Tips:

• Prepping Ahead: Grill the chicken in advance and store it in the fridge for up to three days. This makes assembly super quick.
• Warm Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds before assembling to make them pliable and extra tasty.
• Customize Your Veggies: Add avocado, bell peppers, or even a handful of spinach for extra nutrients.
