Instructions

  1. 1.
    Start by grilling the chicken breast. Preheat your grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken is golden brown. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
  2. 2.
    Warm the whole wheat tortilla. You can do this by placing it on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until it's pliable and warm, but not crispy. This will prevent it from tearing when you roll it.
  3. 3.
    Spread the hummus evenly over the center of the tortilla. This will add creaminess and hold the ingredients together. If the hummus is too thick, stir in a teaspoon of water to make it more spreadable.
  4. 4.
    Arrange the grilled chicken slices, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced avocado on top of the hummus. Try to layer them towards the middle of the tortilla for an easier wrap. The tomatoes and avocado should provide brightness and creaminess to balance the flavors.
  5. 5.
    Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it from the bottom up, keeping the filling tightly packed. Slice the wrap in half diagonally for easy eating. Serve immediately while the chicken is still warm.
