- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface.
- Spread a generous amount of the creamy dressing in the center of each tortilla
- Place lettuce leaves, sliced tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, bell peppers, and sliced avocado (if using) on top of the dressing.
- Slice the grilled peri-peri chicken into thin strips and arrange them on top of the vegetables.
- Optionally, sprinkle grated cheese over the chicken for an extra indulgent touch.
- Fold the sides of each tortilla inward and then roll it tightly from the bottom to create a wrap.
- Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
