Five Spice Maple Glazed Chicken Wrap with Sweet Potato and Maple Cream

After years of passing a local farm, I only recently learned that they raise and sell organic chicken. They've been selling their products to some of the best local restaurants and restaurants in the Hamptons. It's so nice to meet the people behind the product and learn how passionate they are about what they do. I rarely eat chicken, but when I do, this is where I'm going. I've never tasted chicken as delicious as this before. 

Now, this wrap. 

Epic. That is all. You MUST try it. Of course, this chicken would be the perfect addition to any meal, not just the wrap. So here's two recipes in one. Enjoy!

Five Spiced Maple Glazed Chicken Wrap with Sweet Potato and Maple Cream

For the Chicken:

2 (5 oz) chicken breast cutlets 

2 teaspoons Five Spice Powder

2 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup

2 tablespoons water

For the Maple Cream:

3 tablespoons Greek yogurt 

1/2 tablespoon sugar free syrup 

For the Wrap:

1 whole wheat wrap of choice (I used Joseph's brand)

1 Five Spice Maple Glazed Chicken breast, sliced

Fresh cilantro

1/2 medium baked sweet potato, sliced 1/2" thick

1. Wash chicken and pat dry. If the cutlets are thick, slice in half lengthwise or pound thin (about 1/2 inch). 

2. Rub the five spice powder on both sides of the chicken.

3. Combine the sugar free syrup and the water in a small bowl. Set aside. 

3. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Coat with cooking spray. Add the chicken and cook 3-4 minutes. Flip chicken and cook on the other side about 3 more minutes or until almost cooked through. Lower heat and add syrup mixture. Allow to simmer and reduce, about 5 minutes.

4. Remove from pan. Slice and set aside (save one piece for another meal).

5. Mix together the ingredients for the maple cream. 

6. Assemble your wrap using one chicken breast, half of the sweet potato slices, and as much cilantro as you like. Top with maple cream and roll up. Party in your mouth.

Cookie Dough Snack Wrap

This is the perfect snack or small meal to give you an energy boost and to make your taste buds REALLY happy :) . When I was little I would sneak tidbits of cookie dough when my mom wasn't looking. She didn't like the idea of me eating something with raw eggs. So, this recipe is the perfect solution since it is egg free! The taste? SPOT ON. I used a small wrap for this recipe, but you can easily double up the recipe and put it on a regular size wrap/tortilla as well.  Make this!

Cookie Dough Snack Wrap

Ingredients:

1 small tortilla (I used La Tortilla brand)
1 tablespoon oat bran (or oat flour)
1 tablespoon whey protein of choice (I used Peanut Butter Cookie Dough by Metabolic Nutrition)
1/4 teaspoon butter extract (optional)
1 tablespoon water

Directions:

1. Combine the oat bran, whey protein, butter extract, and water in a small bowl (it helps to mash it a little with the back of a spoon).
2. Place mixture on the tortilla. Top with any fruit and nut butter you like. Roll up and eat!
