Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Filling
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for cooking
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger grated
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder adjust to taste
  • 1 can coconut milk about 13.5 oz
  • 1 cup baby spinach fresh
  • 1 cup bell pepper sliced (any color)
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste
For the Wraps
  • 4 large whole wheat tortillas or your preferred wrap
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce for garnish
  • 1/2 cup sliced avocado for garnish (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped, for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Prepare the Chicken Filling
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  4. Stir in the curry powder and cook for another minute, mixing well to coat the chicken.
  5. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add the sliced bell pepper and baby spinach, cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes until the spinach has wilted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Assemble the Wraps
  1. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
  2. Spoon the coconut curry chicken filling onto the center of each tortilla, leaving some space around the edges.
  3. Top the filling with shredded lettuce, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro.
  4. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.

Notes

Feel free to customize your wraps with additional toppings like diced tomatoes, shredded carrots, or a drizzle of lime juice. For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with chickpeas or tofu.
