Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (a rotisserie chicken works wonderfully)

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed to remove excess sodium

1/2 cup BBQ sauce (choose your favorite flavor for a personal touch)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika for that deep, smoky flavor

1 teaspoon garlic powder for an aromatic kick

1 teaspoon onion powder to enhance the flavor profile

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas for a hearty wrap

1 cup corn (you can use fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 cup diced bell peppers (use a mix of colors for a vibrant dish)

1 avocado, sliced thinly for creaminess

1/2 cup shredded cheese (choose between cheddar or pepper jack for a spicy twist)

Fresh cilantro, chopped finely (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for a zesty finish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, black beans, BBQ sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly coated in the sauce.

    Heat the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, add the chicken and black bean mixture along with the corn. Cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally until everything is heated through and the flavors meld together.

      Prepare the Tortillas: To make the tortillas pliable, warm them in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, or microwave them for about 10-15 seconds.

        Assemble the Wraps: Place one warm tortilla on a clean flat surface. Scoop a generous portion of the chicken and black bean filling into the center. Top with diced bell peppers, a few slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

          Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a secure wrap. If necessary, use a toothpick to hold the wrap together.

            Finish and Serve: For an extra crispy texture, return the assembled wraps to the skillet seam-side down and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Serve them warm, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side for a burst of freshness.
