Serve up fajita-style savory chicken wraps in under an hour, no tortillas necessary!
These chicken wraps pack quality protein, fats, and hearty vegetables. They’re also whipped up on a sheet pan for an easy one-pan meal for busy weeknights.
Pasture-raised chicken breasts are filled with chopped veggies and zesty spices for a fit and nutritious meal. Opting for pastured chicken includes a higher level of vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids. It’s also a versatile protein that’s great for stuffing, wrapping, or smothering with just about any seasoning.
A spicy combination of cumin, oregano, and smoky paprika creates the perfect rub. Instead of using onions, this recipe swaps in scallions for a subtle twist. When making the wraps, trim the scallions to be slightly larger than each chicken breast and include multiple colors of bell peppers for optimal nutrition.

Other great ingredients for stuffing inside these chicken wraps include:
- Spinach
- Sun-dried tomato
- Fresh basil
- Julienned carrots
- Mushrooms
To get started, pound each chicken breast into ¼-inch thickness. This will help create a flat surface area to lay the vegetables on top. Arrange the vegetables in the center of each fillet and fold in the ends, slightly overlapping. Secure with a toothpick and brush the tops with avocado oil. Sprinkle on the seasonings and press down to help them stick. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown on top. When finished, remove the toothpicks and serve warm. Garnish with fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro.
