Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 8 large lettuce leaves (butter lettuce or iceberg work well)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground chicken and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned.
  2. Add chopped red onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Stir in chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in diced avocado, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Gently mix to combine.
  5. Spoon the chicken and avocado mixture into the lettuce leaves.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a spicier wrap, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a diced jalapeño to the chicken mixture.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or shredded rotisserie chicken for the ground chicken.
  • If you don’t have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but use less (about 1 teaspoon).
