💡 Tips
- Butter lettuce creates soft, flexible wraps, while iceberg lettuce provides extra crunch.
- Cook the bacon until crisp so it adds texture to every bite.
- Keep the lettuce and filling separate until serving if you’re meal prepping to maintain freshness.
- For extra smoky flavor, use grilled chicken instead of pan-seared chicken.
- Pair with celery sticks, cucumber slices, or cauliflower chips for a complete low-carb meal.
