Cheap and Easy – Chicken Wraps

Posted by casey on August 29, 2011 in In The Kitchen, Snacks and Sides, The Main Show |

I’m talking about food here people, not anything inappropriate – a cheap and easy dinner my friends.  I posted this recipe once before, but since it is still scorching hot out and our water line broke leaving us broke and me needing an easy meal/snack to fix I thought I would hsare it again in case you missed it.

Chicken Tarragon Wraps
2 Cups Diced Chicken (If you’re in a hurry snag a cooked rotisserie chicken from your store.  If not, I suggest grilled or pan seared chicken breasts)
1 Lemon
1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
1/2 Tablespoon Dried Tarragon or 2 Tablespoons Fresh
1 Avocado Cubed
Chopped Romaine
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Pitas, Tortillas or Flatbread
Grated Parmesan

1. Squeeze 1 1/2 Tablespoons of lemon juice into a bowl.  Add the mayonnaise and tarragon and stir to combine.  Set aside in the fridge while you assemble the rest.

2. Once your chicken is cooked whether you cooked it yourself or bought it that way chop it into cubes and toss the chicken and the cubed avocados with the dressing.  Season to taste with salt and pepper to your liking.  You can make the dressing ahead of time and even toss the chicken with it in advance but do not cut and add the avocado until you are ready to assemble the wraps.

3. Chop up your romaine into thin slices. 

4. Personally I think that pitas or flatbread work the best for a dish like this, and I really love “Flatout Healthy Grain Flatbread”.  In most groceries they carry these or similar types near the deli meat counter not in the bakery or bread aisle.

See? Cheap and Easy.
