Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

½ cup teriyaki sauce

4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 cup cucumber, julienned

1 cup red cabbage, shredded

¼ cup green onions, sliced

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)

Lettuce leaves for wrapping

Olive oil or cooking spray (for grilling)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the teriyaki sauce. Stir until the chicken is fully coated in the sauce. Allow it to marinate for at least 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.

    Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken is marinating, wash and chop your vegetables. Shred the carrots, slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, julienne the cucumber into thin matchsticks, and shred the red cabbage.

      Warm the Tortillas: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with a drizzle of olive oil or a quick spray of cooking spray. Warm each tortilla in the skillet for about 15-20 seconds on each side, or until they are soft and pliable.

        Assemble the Wraps: Take one warmed tortilla and lay it flat on a clean surface. Place a crisp lettuce leaf in the center of the tortilla. Spoon a generous portion of the marinated teriyaki chicken mixture on top of the lettuce, followed by a vibrant mix of the prepared vegetables (carrots, bell pepper, cucumber, and cabbage).

          Add Finishing Touches: Scatter the sliced green onions over the top and, if using, sprinkle sesame seeds for added crunch and flavor.

            Wrap It Up: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom upwards to securely enclose the delicious filling.

              Grill for Extra Flavor: For an added layer of texture, return the wrapped tortillas to the skillet and grill each side for 1-2 minutes until they achieve a golden-brown, crispy exterior.

                Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for an appealing presentation. Serve immediately with extra teriyaki sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
