Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads
- 1 cup cooked chicken, diced
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup watercress pesto
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by washing and chopping: slice avocado, halve cherry tomatoes, dice cooked chicken, and chop hard-boiled eggs.
- Warm the flatbreads briefly in a skillet or on a griddle for about 30-45 seconds on each side to enhance flexibility and create light golden marks.
- Spread a generous layer of watercress pesto evenly across the center of each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Layer the diced chicken first, creating a protein-rich base in the center of the flatbread.
- Arrange sliced avocado, chopped hard-boiled eggs, and halved cherry tomatoes on top of the chicken.
- Sprinkle crumbled blue cheese over the ingredients, distributing evenly.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavors.
- Carefully fold the sides of the flatbread inward, then roll from bottom to top, creating a tight wrap.
- Cut the wrap diagonally in half and serve immediately while ingredients are fresh and flatbread is warm.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: Cook chicken and hard-boil eggs in advance to make assembly super quick.
- Warm Flatbread Trick: Briefly heating flatbreads creates a more pliable wrap and adds a delightful light crispness.
- Pesto Pro Tip: Spread pesto evenly but sparingly to prevent soggy wraps.
- Temperature Balance: Serve immediately to enjoy the warm flatbread and cool, fresh ingredients.
- Customization Options: Swap blue cheese for feta, or add crispy bacon for extra flavor.
- Storage Hack: If making ahead, keep ingredients separate and assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.
- Perfect Cut: Use a sharp knife and cut diagonally for that professional restaurant-style presentation.
