Ingredients

🍗 170g chicken breast cubed
🧅 1/4 red onion finely chopped
🧀 30g soft lighter cheese similar to cream cheese
🧀 15g light cheddar cheese grated
🌿 1 tbsp green basil pesto
🌿 1 tsp Italian seasoning
🌱 Small handful of rocket fresh arugula leaves
🌯 1 Aldi high protein wrap
🧂 Salt and pepper

Instructions

1- Prepare & Season the Chicken:

• In a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, add cubed chicken and red onion.
• Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat everything evenly.

2- Cook the Chicken & Onion:

• Cook for 5-10 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through and the onion is softened.
• The chicken should be opaque white with some browning on the edges.

3- Add Cheeses & Pesto:

• Stir in the soft lighter cheese, grated cheddar, and pesto. Mix thoroughly to combine.
• Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes to let the cheese melt into a creamy sauce, enveloping the chicken in a vibrant green pesto mix.

4- Assemble the Wrap:

• Lay the Aldi high protein wrap flat and spoon the creamy chicken mixture onto it.
• Top with a small handful of fresh rocket leaves.

5- Roll & Crisp the Wrap:

• Fold and roll the wrap tightly to enclose the filling.

6- Toast the Wrap:

• Place the rolled wrap into the non-stick pan over medium heat.
• Toast for 2-3 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden-brown and crispy.

7- Serve:

• Remove the wrap from the pan. Use kitchen shears or a sharp knife to cut the wrap down the middle.
• Serve immediately and enjoy!
