Nectarine, Kale & Cornish Hen Summer Wrap
Uses: Cornish hen, tortilla, nectarine, kale, cucumber, guacamole
Ingredients:
- 1 tortilla
- 3 ounces cooked Cornish hen, shredded
- 1/2 nectarine, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced kale
- 1/4 cup cucumber strips
- 1 tablespoon guacamole
Instructions:
- Season the Cornish hen with a little oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cumin. Cook in the oven, air fryer, or covered skillet until fully cooked and the meat is tender. Let it rest for a few minutes, so it is easier to handle.
- Remove the cooked Cornish hen meat from the bone and shred it into bite-size pieces.
- Warm the tortilla and let it cool slightly.
- Spread guacamole down the center.
- Layer shredded Cornish hen, nectarine slices, kale, and cucumber.
- Season with black pepper and a tiny squeeze of orange juice or vinegar if available.
- Roll gently into a wrap, keeping the fruit tucked inside so each bite is sweet, savory, and fresh.
Good for: A summery wrap that feels a little unexpected, with juicy fruit balancing the savory chicken.
Optional: Add cheddar or picante sauce for a richer, spicier wrap.
