Ingredients

  • Chicken breasts: You’ll need 2 of these bad boys around 500g.
  • Greek Yogurt: A full cup 240ml for that creamy goodness.
  • Whole Wheat Tortillas: 4 should do the trick.
  • Olive Oil: A couple of tablespoons 30ml to get things sizzling.
  • Garlic: 2 cloves chopped up nice and fine.
  • Cumin Paprika, Salt, and Black Pepper: To spice things up.
  • Fresh Cilantro: About ¼ cup finely chopped.
  • Lime: Grab one and get it juiced.
  • Veggies like bell peppers and onions: About a cup (240ml) will do.

Instructions

  • First things first, let’s season that chicken with our spices. Get them all over.
  • Get that skillet nice and hot with the olive oil, then toss in the garlic until it’s golden.
  • Chicken time! Into the skillet it goes. We’re talking 7-8 minutes each side.
  • As the chicken sizzles away, combine the Greek yogurt with the lime juice in a separate bowl.
  • Once that chicken’s done (golden and tempting), give it a rest. Five minutes should do it. Then, slice it up.
  • Those tortillas won’t warm themselves. Get them nice and toasty.
  • Let’s build! Spread the Greek yogurt mix on a tortilla, layer on that chicken, sprinkle cilantro, and top with veggies.
  • Go ahead and do the same for the rest. Your tastebuds will thank you.

Notes

For those who love a fiery touch, sprinkle in some chili flakes in that Greek yogurt mix.
Watching the waistline? Opt for low-fat Greek yogurt.
Nobody likes dry chicken. Keep an eye on it so it stays tender.
Make it yours! Throw in some avocado or lettuce. Maybe a sprinkle of cheese?
