"I worked some Mexican flair into what's normally an Asian dish. Soft butter lettuce (or romaine) cradles taco-seasoned chicken, juicy tomatoes and corn, crisp red peppers, and cheese. The wraps are topped with bright cilantro and seasoned tortilla chips. There's so much flavor and texture in every bite. You can customize the wraps by incorporating ingredients like black beans, guacamole, salsa, sour cream, or your favorite taco fixings. The wraps are a perfect easy party appetizer and people love creating their own. Or make them for a fun, fast, and healthy dinner or lunch. They're ready in 10 minutes and a crowd favorite...."
