In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add in the chicken and top with the turmeric, garlic powder, and cayenne. Cook until the chicken is done on the outside and just beginning to brown (it doesn't need to be cooked all the way through just yet). This will take about 5 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Select Perfectly Ripe Mangos 🥭Choose mangos that yield slightly to pressure and have a fragrant aroma at the stem end. Under-ripe mangos will be tough and flavorless, while over-ripe ones become mushy in the wrap.
- Pound Chicken for Even Cooking 🔨Gently pound chicken breasts to ½-inch thickness to ensure even cooking and prevent dry, overcooked edges. This also reduces overall cooking time, keeping the meat juicier.
- Dry Your Lettuce Leaves Completely 💧Pat lettuce leaves dry with paper towels after washing to prevent soggy wraps and ensure sauces adhere properly. Crisp leaves also provide better structural support for the filling.
- Toast Your Spices for Maximum Flavor ✨Bloom the turmeric and garlic powder in hot oil for 30 seconds before adding chicken to activate their aromatic compounds and deepen their flavors significantly.
- Assemble Right Before Eating 🍽️Keep components separate until serving time to prevent lettuce from wilting and maintain textural contrast between crisp vegetables and warm chicken. This also allows each person to customize their wrap preferences.
