Crispy Southwest Chicken Wraps

Do you ever crave food?  In particular Chipotle or Qdoba?  I know that my boyfriend and I do.  Our grocery store has a special on rotisserie chickens every Friday, 2 for $10!  So, I usually buy them.  This time we were looking at having chicken wraps so, I came up with a "southwest" themed wrap. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp dried cilantro
  • 2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 10 whole wheat tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • plain Greek yogurt


Directions:
  1. In large bowl, mix cooked rice with cumin, paprika, garlic powder, garlic salt, onion powder, cilantro, cayenne pepper, and oregano.  Add drained black beans, chicken, red bell pepper, and green onion.
  2. To assemble: line the tortilla with a small amount of cheese, place a dollop of Greek yogurt in the center, add 2 large spoon-fulls of the chicken/bean/rice mixture on top of the Greek yogurt.  Fold in two ends and roll. TIP: put a small amount of cheese in the overlapping tortilla to seal it shut.
  3. Heat a griddle over medium heat.  Spray with non-stick spray.  Place the wraps, with the seam side down, on the warm griddle.  Cook for 3 minutes on each side, or until the wraps have a light toasted look.
  4. Enjoy with salsa, more Greek Yogurt, or hot sauce. 


Enjoy!
