What you’ll need

Ingredients

Let’s do this

  1. 1

    Mix yogurt, lemon juice, and dill in a clean bowl and set aside. Prepare the lettuce, carrot, and celery before handling chicken.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and garlic powder; cook for 7–10 minutes, turning, until the strips reach 165°F.

  3. 3

    Lower the heat. Add hot sauce and water, toss for 30 seconds, then remove from the stove.

  4. 4

    Warm the tortillas in a dry pan or microwave until pliable. Spread each with half the yogurt mixture.

  5. 5

    Layer on lettuce, carrot, celery, and chicken. Fold the sides inward and roll firmly from the bottom.
