Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ¼ cup white tequila
- 10 large pieces of lettuce
- 1 cup pineapple mango salsa
- Other optional toppings: salsa, guacamole, cheese
Marinade:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Chop chicken into small pieces (½ inch cubes) and place in a ziploc bag or container. Mix together marinade + pour marinade over chicken. Allow chicken to marinate for 10 minutes (or overnight)
- Heat a pan over the stove at medium high heat. Spray pan with olive oil or nonstick cooking spray. Pour marinated chicken + marinade directly into the pan. Sauté the chicken for 12-15 minutes until it is browned.
- Once chicken is cooked, add tequila to the pan and allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes until alcohol has cooked off + the chicken has a nice crust on it.
- Assemble wraps with lettuce, chicken + your favorite toppings. We used this Pineapple Mango Salsa on top of these!
Notes
WW Freestyle note: Could be 1SP per serving if you skip the tequila.
