- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Optional garnish: Fresh parsley leaves, chopped
Instructions
1. Prepare the Marinade:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and lemon juice.
- Whisk until well blended to form a marinade.
2. Prep the Chicken:
- Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and cover them with plastic wrap.
- Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, gently pound the chicken to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
3. Marinate the Chicken:
- Add the chicken breasts to the bowl with the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
- Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
4. Cook the Chicken:
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Once heated, remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and place them on the grill pan.
- Cook for approximately 6–7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and juices run clear.
5. Let the Chicken Rest:
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
6. Assemble the Wraps:
- Warm each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side.
- Place a generous portion of chicken strips in the center of each tortilla.
- For an added burst of flavor, sprinkle fresh parsley on top.
7. Wrap and Serve:
- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it up tightly.
- Serve immediately for a delightful breakfast experience.
