Preheating your grill is a crucial step in achieving perfectly grilled chicken for your Tropical Delight wraps. An adequately heated grill ensures even cooking, preventing the chicken from becoming dry or tough. The ideal temperature for grilling chicken is between 375°F to 450°F (190°C to 230°C). This temperature range allows for proper searing, which locks in juices and enhances the flavor of the chicken. To preheat, turn on your grill to high heat for about 10-15 minutes. You can also use a grill thermometer to check the temperature if your grill doesn't have a built-in gauge.

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken:

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts, making sure they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

      Prepare the Mango Salsa:

        While the chicken is marinating, mix together the diced mango, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Set aside for the flavors to meld.

          Grill the Chicken:

            Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

              Assemble the Wraps:

                Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Start by adding a handful of mixed greens to the center of each tortilla, followed by sliced avocado, grilled chicken slices, and a generous scoop of the mango salsa.

                  Wrap it Up:

                    Fold in the sides of the tortilla, and then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top to form a wrap. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.

                      Serve:

                        Cut the wraps in half at a diagonal and serve with extra lime wedges. Enjoy the refreshing combination of flavors!
