Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Lean pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Whole-wheat tortillas
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 small Red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups Shredded lettuce
- 150 grams Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and cut it into thin strips.
Place the pork strips in a bowl and coat them evenly with Jamaican jerk seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned pork strips to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Meanwhile, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the low-fat Greek yogurt, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Warm the whole-wheat tortillas in a dry pan or microwave to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, spread a spoonful of the yogurt sauce on each tortilla. Layer with shredded lettuce, sautéed vegetables, and cooked pork strips.
Roll each tortilla tightly to form a wrap. Slice in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low-fat Jamaican pork wraps!
