Provided by Patrick and Gina Neely : Food Network

Time 37m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 (8-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup mango-peach jam (recommended: Stonewall Kitchens)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 teaspoon peeled, grated ginger
1/2 small jalapeno, seeded, ribs removed, and minced
12 ounces Boston or Bibb lettuce, leaves separated
3 green onions, thinly sliced on the bias
Neely's Smoky Corn Salsa, recipe follows
4 ears corn, husked
2 teaspoons canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 small red onion, diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 large garlic clove, peeled and very finely chopped, optional
Juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
  • Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until golden and brown. Flip the chicken and continue cooking for 3 to 4 minutes on the other side.
  • While the chicken is cooking, add the mango peach jam, soy sauce, lime juice, ginger, and jalapeno in a saucepan. Place the saucepan directly on the grill grates and let the glaze simmer 3 minutes so the flavors can marry together.
  • Brush the glaze on the chicken breasts during their last minute of cooking. Remove the chicken to a cutting board when done and brush again with glaze.
  • Shred the chicken with a fork, or dice with a knife.
  • Place the chicken in lettuce cups together on a platter. Sprinkle with green onions. Serve with Smoky Corn Salsa.
  • Preheat a grill to medium heat.
  • Rub the corn with canola oil, and season with salt and pepper. Grill or broil the corn ears for 7 minutes or until the ears are lightly browned. Remove corn from the grill and cool.
  • With your knife, slice the corn kernels from the cob and add to a bowl.
  • Add the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, garlic, and lime juice and toss well. Season the salsa with salt and pepper, to taste.

1/2 cup chopped artichoke hearts
1 small red onion, diced small
1 Roma tomato, diced small
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon minced rosemary
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 garlic cloves, minced
Zest of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 chicken cutlets
10 to 12 butter lettuce leaves
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
1/3 cup balsamic glaze
1/4 cup prepared pesto
10 basil leaves, torn

Steps:

  • For the topping: Add the artichoke hearts, red onion, diced tomato, lemon juice, olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper to a medium bowl. Toss to combine and set aside.
  • For the filling: In a separate large bowl, mix the olive oil, rosemary, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the chicken and toss to combine and coat the chicken.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken to the grill, cook until well marked and golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Chop into small pieces and add the chicken pieces to a serving bowl.
  • Lay out the bowl of chicken, the topping, the lettuce leaves, cheese, balsamic glaze, pesto and basil on a platter or board and have everyone build their own wraps.
  • To make a wrap, take one of the butter lettuce leaves and fill with some of the grilled chicken. Add a teaspoon of prepared pesto, then spoon some of the tomato and artichoke topping onto the chicken. Drizzle over the balsamic glaze, sprinkle on the Romano cheese and garnish with fresh basil.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 ears fresh corn
3 ½ cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 ½ cups chopped cooked bacon
1 ½ cups chopped avocado
1 cup chopped Roma tomatoes
1 cup chopped red onion
1 cup ranch dressing
6 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Cook chicken and corn on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear and corn is tender, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken breasts should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from heat and allow to cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes. Cut corn kernels from the cobs. Slice chicken into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Combine chicken, corn, lettuce, bacon, avocado, tomatoes, and onion in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add ranch dressing and mix well.
  • To assemble, place 2/3 cup of the mixture on the bottom 1/3 of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll tight. Continue with remaining tortillas.
