Crispy Mediterranean Chicken Wraps

A delightful way to enjoy chicken thighs wrapped with fresh ingredients and a luscious ricotta spread. Perfect for a warm dinner with just the right amount of zing!

Ingredients

• 4 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Tortilla wraps
• 1 cup frozen mixed peppers, thawed
• 1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Fresh herbs (like parsley or basil) for garnish, optional

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and toss to coat evenly. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes while you prepare other ingredients.

2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a bit of olive oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken thighs. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.

3. Sauté the Veggies: In the same skillet, add the thawed mixed peppers and spinach. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Prepare the Ricotta Spread: In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper until smooth.

5. Assemble the Wraps: On a tortilla wrap, spread a generous spoonful of the ricotta mixture. Layer on the sautéed veggies and sliced chicken thighs. Feel free to sprinkle with fresh herbs if you have them.

6. Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Cut in half and serve!
