Chicken and Chile Wraps



You will need:

1 small poblano chile *
1/4 cup reduced-calorie mayonnaise
4 medium whole wheat tortilla(s)
1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
12 oz cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
2 Tbsp chives, fresh, minced
1/2 medium avocado, sliced


*Place chile over stovetop flame; char on all sides, about 5 minutes.Remove chile from flame and place in a paper bag; close bag and set aside to steam for 15 minutes. Remove chile from bag and remove blackened skin with your hands, under running water. Core, seed and chop chile; set aside.(This way is the "if you have time" method, otherwise, just use a can of prepared roasted mild chiles to substitute the poblano chile) *
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise over each tortilla and top each with 1/4 cup of lettuce. Arrange 1/4 of chicken in a strip down the center of each tortilla; top each with 1/4 of chile, chives and avocado.
To serve, fold the bottom third of each tortilla toward the middle. Then fold the left side to the center and the right side to the center; serve. Yields 1 wrap per serving.

So easy, and so delicious! For vegetarians, Morningstar Farm brand "chicken" strips works wonderful, as well as the Boca brand Chick'n patties. Just cut into strips after preparing; I highly reccomend the spicy flavor.
