Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

2 chicken breasts, seasoned with salt and pepper
4 slices smoked turkey bacon
4 large whole wheat wraps

Crunchy Asian Slaw

2 cups shredded green cabbage
1 cup julienned carrots
1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper
2 green onions, sliced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Dressing (natural)

2 tablespoons natural rice vinegar
1 tablespoon natural apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon natural honey
1 tablespoon natural sesame oil

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken and Bacon: Season chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper. Cook in a hot skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Simultaneously, cook the smoked turkey bacon until crisp, then chop into bite-sized pieces for added smoky crunch.
Make the Crunchy Asian Slaw: In a large bowl, combine shredded green cabbage, julienned carrots, sliced red bell pepper, sliced green onions, and chopped fresh cilantro. Whisk together rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar, honey, and sesame oil to create a bright and tangy dressing. Toss the vegetables thoroughly to evenly coat them with the dressing.
Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat wraps and spread a generous layer of the cabbage slaw on each wrap. Add sliced chicken breast on top and sprinkle with crispy smoked turkey bacon pieces. Fold or roll the wraps tightly to secure all the tasty fillings inside.
Serve with Flair: Cut the wraps in half diagonally for appealing presentation. Optionally, serve with extra slaw on the side or a small bowl of grape juice (natural) as a refreshing beverage to complement the meal.

Notes

Use freshly shredded veggies to keep the slaw crunchy and vibrant.
Toss the slaw just before assembling to maintain optimal texture.
Slightly warm the wraps to help with pliability and easier folding.
Slice the chicken thinly for better flavor distribution and ease of eating.
Make extra slaw as a delightful side dish that stores well for the next day.
