Instructions

  1. 1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden and fully cooked through (internal temperature of 75°C). Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.

  4. 4. Chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and return them to the skillet. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil leaves. Stir everything together and let cook for another 3-4 minutes until the chicken is coated and warmed through.
  5. 5. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves thoroughly. Separate them into individual cups for wrapping.
  6. 6. Spoon the creamy Italian chicken mixture into the lettuce cups, dividing evenly among them. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
  7. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy your protein-rich, flavorful Italian-inspired lettuce wraps!
