→ To Assemble

# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together sour cream, salsa, and taco seasoning until smooth. Set aside.
02 -
In a large bowl, mix chopped lettuce, shredded cheese, diced tomato, and tortilla strips. Drizzle approximately 2 tablespoons (about 30 ml) of the prepared sauce over the mixture and toss gently to coat.
03 -
Place a tortilla flat on the work surface. Spoon approximately one-fourth of the lettuce mixture along the bottom center of the tortilla. Top with one-fourth of the chicken strips.
04 -
Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom upwards to seal. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
05 -
Slice each wrap in half. Serve immediately with remaining sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
For optimal texture, assemble wraps just before serving to maintain crisp lettuce and tortilla strips.
02 -
To adapt for gluten-free or low carb diets, select appropriate tortilla varieties.
