Ingredients
Scale
For the Chicken Marinade
- 1 lb chicken breast, sliced into thin strips
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce (natural)
- 2 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1 tsp natural gelling agent
For the Vegetables and Assembly
- 1 cup bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 4 soft tortillas
- Optional: 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the sweet chili sauce (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), minced garlic, and a splash of apple cider vinegar (natural). Toss the chicken pieces in this mixture and let them marinate for at least 10 minutes to soak up the flavors.
- Prepare the Veggies: While your chicken marinates, shred the carrots and slice the bell peppers and cucumber into thin strips. Keep them fresh and crisp to provide a nice contrast to the tender chicken.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for around 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until the chicken is cooked through and beautifully coated with the sticky sauce enhanced with a natural gelling agent, giving it just the right consistency.
- Assemble the Wraps: Warm the tortillas slightly so they’re flexible. Lay a good amount of chicken down the center, then pile on the prepared veggies. Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top for a burst of herbal freshness.
- Roll and Enjoy: Fold the sides in and roll the tortilla tightly to hold all the delicious fillings. Serve immediately, or wrap up for an on-the-go treat.

- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and texture.

- Warm your tortillas slightly to make wrapping easier and improve texture.
- Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to suit your preferred sweetness and spice level.
- Prepare the marinade and chop veggies ahead of time to save time during assembly.
