Ingredients

  • 1 ⅓ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized strips
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese 5-spice powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 medium zucchini cut into half-circles
  • 1 medium red bell pepper cut into thin strips
  • 4 burrito-sizedwhole wheat tortillas (I used Mission Carb Balance tortillas)
  • ¼ cup hoisin sauce
  • 1 cup grated part-skim mozzarella cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, toss chicken strips with 5-spice powder, salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray.
  3. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
  4. Wipe the pan clean, coat with olive oil spray and place over medium heat. Add zucchini and red bell pepper, and cook until just tender.
  5. Spread 1 tablespoon of hoisin sauce on each tortilla.
  6. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lay one tortilla (with hoisin sauce) in the skillet, and cover half of the tortilla with 2 tablespoons of mozzarella, then top with a quarter of the chicken, zucchini, bell peppers and another 2 tablespoons of mozzarella.
  7. Fold the tortilla over the filling and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from pan and let the tortilla rest for a few minutes. Cut into 3 wedges.
  8. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings. Serve.
