Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat grill or a pan over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and any other preferred spices.

- Wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Rinse the tomato and cut it into thin slices or small chunks, whichever you prefer.
- Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise salad dressing evenly over the tortilla.
- Place the lettuce leaves on top of the tortilla.
- Add the sliced chicken breast on top of the lettuce.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken.
- Distribute the tomato slices or chunks evenly on top of the chicken.
- Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inward.
- Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the tortilla up to form the wrap.
- If desired, cut the wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
- Enjoy your delicious and nutritious chicken wrap!
Tips:
- Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and any other favorite spices before cooking to enhance the flavor.
- Grilling or baking the chicken instead of pan-frying can make the wrap healthier by reducing the amount of added fat.
- To add a bit of zest, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a few drops of hot sauce to the mayonnaise.
- For added crunch, try using a mix of different lettuce types or adding some thinly sliced cucumbers or bell peppers.
- Warming the tortilla slightly before adding the ingredients will make it more pliable and easier to wrap.
