Lightly spiced chicken wrapped with slaw, avocado, cheddar cheese, crunchy tortilla chips and an amazing southwest sauce.
Ingredients
For the chicken:
- 1 lb chicken tenders
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp coriander
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- juice of 1 lime
For the sauce:
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1-2 tbsp adobo sauce from a can of chiles in adobo
- 1 minced jalapeno from a can of chiles in adobo you can leave this out if you want less spice
- salt to taste
For the slaw:
- 1 package coleslaw mix I used a rainbow mix
- sour cream to taste
- salt to taste
- lime juice to taste
For the wraps:
- 4 wraps
- 2 ripe avocados sliced
- shredded cheddar cheese
- crushed tortilla chips
Instructions
- Mix the chicken rub ingredients in a ziploc bag and add the tenders. Mix to fully coat then let marinate in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. Heat a little oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the tenders. Cook, flipping them occasionally, until golden and cooked fully.
- Mix the slaw with a little sour cream and lime and salt to your taste. I prefer not too much sour cream, just enough to bring it together.
- Combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl and mix well. Thin with a little water if needed and taste the dressing and adjust the salt, lime, and spices as you desire.
- Lay a few tenders in the center of the wrap and spread some of the delicious sauce over them. Top with slaw, cheese, avocado, and chips. Roll up into a wrap and cut in half. Serve with extra sauce on the side.
