→ Wraps and Assembly
16 - 4 large flour tortillas, 10-inch diameter
17 - 2 cups mixed salad greens (arugula, baby spinach, or romaine)

19 - 1 medium tomato, sliced
20 - 1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced

# How to Make It:
01 - In a mixing bowl, combine parsley, cilantro, oregano, garlic, shallot, and red pepper flakes. Add olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon zest and juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Set aside.
02 - Place chicken breasts in a shallow dish. Add 3 tablespoons of chimichurri sauce and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Turn to coat evenly, cover, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours.
03 - Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
04 - Warm tortillas. Spread a spoonful of chimichurri sauce down the center of each tortilla. Layer with salad greens, cucumber, tomato, red onion, sliced chicken, and avocado if using. Drizzle with additional chimichurri sauce.
05 - Roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to secure the filling. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately.
