Make a delicious Chicken and Avocado Mayo Wrap using leftover chicken and ripe avocados. A tasty and easy recipe for a quick meal.
We all know how quickly Avocados can turn on you. One day they are unripe and the next day they are mushy and blackened.
I had a few avocados I really needed to use and some leftover chicken so I made this delicious Chicken and Avocado Mayo Wraps.
How to Pick the Perfect Avocado
Choosing the wrong avocado will ruin your dish. Especially when the avocado is the main ingredient like in Guacamole. Basically, you want a perfectly ripe Avocado. This is a great article on How to Select the Perfect Avocado.
How to Soften Tortillas
When the time comes to warm up your tortillas, you have a few options. You can wrap the tortillas in foil and bake them for 10 minutes at 350ยฐF.
You can also put them in a non-stick pan to heat both sides of the tortilla (this is how I usually do it), heat them over an open flame, or if you must, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave them for about 30 seconds.
Recipe Variation
You can easily customize these wraps by adding some of your favorite ingredients to the chicken mixture such as chopped bacon, green onions or even a little diced jalapeรฑo.
You also have a nice selection of tortilla wraps you can use. For this recipe I used sun-dried tomato wraps but you can use whatever you prefer like regular wraps, spinach wraps or even low-carb wraps.
Ingredient Substitution
You can use sour cream instead of the mayonnaise if you are not a fan of the taste of mayonnaise.
