Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 300 grams
• Lemon juice - 30 ml
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Olive oil - 15 ml
• Oregano - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Romaine lettuce leaves - 4 large
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Cut the chicken breast into burger-sized fillets and add them to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.
4. While the chicken cooks, prepare the lettuce wraps by washing the romaine leaves and patting them dry.
