Ingredients

• 4 large flour tortillas

• 1 cup cooked corn kernels
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro

• Salt and pepper to taste

 

Recipe Directions

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cooked chicken breast, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through and well coated with the spices.
2. Warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or in the microwave according to package instructions.
3. To assemble the wraps, place a spoonful of the seasoned chicken in the center of each tortilla.
4. Top the chicken with cooked corn kernels, diced tomatoes, black beans, avocado slices, chopped cilantro, diced red onion, crumbled feta or queso fresco cheese, and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
5. Squeeze a wedge of lime over the filling.
6. Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to form a wrap.
7. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
8. Serve the Mexican Corn Wraps immediately, with extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing.

Kitchen Equipment Needed

Serving Suggestions

Mexican Corn Wraps are delicious on their own, but you can take them to the next level by serving them with a side of salsa, guacamole, or hot sauce for dipping. Pair them with a refreshing agua fresca or a cold cerveza for a true taste of Mexico. For a heartier meal, serve them with a side of Mexican rice or a simple green salad.

FAQ

Can I make these wraps vegetarian? Absolutely! Simply omit the chicken and add extra veggies like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for a delicious vegetarian option.

Can I use store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of cooking my own? Of course! Using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken is a convenient option that will save you time in the kitchen.

Can I make these wraps ahead of time? While these wraps are best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare the filling ingredients ahead of time and assemble the wraps just before serving to prevent them from getting soggy.
