• 2 to 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, adjust for heat
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt, to taste
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• For the wraps
• 6 large tortilla wraps
• 1 cup Monterey Jack, shredded, or mozzarella
• 1 small red onion
• 1 cup bell peppers, chopped
• 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced Our extra
• For the sauce
• 6 tablespoons Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from the can, adjust for spice
• 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped

Method

1. Put the chicken in a big bowl with the garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, onion powder, lime juice and salt.

2. Chop the chipotle peppers and stir them in. Start with two, they're hot. Add the olive oil, mix until everything's coated, and leave it 10 to 15 minutes.

3. Heat a big pan on medium-high. Cook the chicken 8 to 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until it's browned and cooked through. Set it aside.

4. Sauce: stir the yogurt, mayo, lime juice, garlic powder, adobo sauce, cilantro, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Taste it. Want more smoke? More adobo.

5. Slice the red onion and the avocado. Lay a tortilla flat and pile on lettuce, chicken, onion, peppers, avocado and cheese. Plenty of sauce on top.

6. Fold in the sides and roll it up tight.

7. Our move: wipe out the pan, put the wrap in seam side down on medium heat with no oil, 2 minutes. It seals shut and goes crisp.

8. Eat it now, or wrap it in foil for later.
