7. Flip the chicken using tongs and cook for another 6-7 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
8. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes to redistribute juices.
9. While the chicken rests, warm the tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds per side until pliable.
10. Thinly slice the rested chicken against the grain into 1/4-inch strips.
11. In a small bowl, mash the avocado slices with Greek yogurt and fresh lime juice until creamy but slightly chunky.

Spicy Turkey and Black Bean Wrap
Juggling lunch prep while trying to adult? This spicy turkey and black bean wrap is your new culinary wingman—flavor-packed, ridiculously easy, and guaranteed to make your taste buds do a happy dance without requiring a PhD in kitchen wizardry.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 15 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, freshly grated
  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
  2. Add diced yellow onion and sauté until translucent and edges begin to caramelize, 4–5 minutes.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds—watch closely to prevent burning.
  4. Add ground turkey, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and cook until no pink remains, 6–7 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper over the turkey, toasting the spices for 30 seconds to deepen their flavor.
  6. Fold in rinsed black beans and chicken stock, scraping any browned bits from the skillet—this builds a richer base.
  7. Simmer uncovered until liquid reduces by half, 3–4 minutes, then remove from heat.
  8. Warm flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 20 seconds per side until pliable—this prevents cracking when rolled.
  9. Divide the turkey mixture evenly among tortillas, spreading it slightly off-center.
  10. Top each with grated Monterey Jack cheese while the mixture is hot to encourage melting.
  11. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and drizzle with Greek yogurt for a tangy contrast.
  12. Fold sides of each tortilla inward, then roll tightly away from you, tucking ingredients as you go.
  13. Place wraps seam-side down in the skillet over medium heat and toast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
  14. Serve immediately with lime wedges for squeezing over the top.

Buttery tortillas cradle a zesty, spiced turkey filling that’s studded with creamy black beans, while the crisp exterior gives way to a molten cheese core. For a next-level twist, slice wraps diagonally and serve with a side of chipotle-lime slaw—the cool crunch perfectly offsets the smoky heat.

  • ¼ cup shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
