Ingredients
Wrap Base
- 2 low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps
Filling
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh mozzarella, sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- Fresh basil leaves (about 10 leaves)
Seasoning and Dressing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Wrap Base: Lay out the 2 low-carb tortillas or lettuce leaves on a clean flat surface, ensuring they are ready to hold the fillings securely.
- Add the Chicken: Evenly distribute the cooked and sliced chicken breasts over each tortilla or lettuce leaf, forming a base layer.
- Layer the Cheese and Tomato: Place the fresh mozzarella slices and tomato slices evenly atop the chicken, providing rich flavor and moisture.
- Add Fresh Basil Leaves: Scatter fresh basil leaves over the layered ingredients to infuse aromatic herbal notes.
- Season and Dress: Drizzle each wrap with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance all the flavors.
- Wrap and Serve: Carefully wrap each tortilla or fold the lettuce leaves tightly around the fillings to create compact, easy-to-eat wraps. Serve immediately for a fresh and satisfying meal.
Notes
- Use lettuce wraps instead of tortillas for a stricter keto-friendly, lower-carb option.
- Adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze or reduction enhances the sweet and tangy flavor profile.
- Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients like mozzarella and basil for best taste and texture.
