Begin by marinating the chicken breasts. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over both chicken breasts.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the vegetables. Slice the avocado and cucumber thinly, julienne the red bell pepper, and wash and dry the mixed salad greens.
In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar to create a dressing.
Warm the whole wheat wraps in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, just until pliable.
To assemble each wrap, lay a warm wrap flat on a clean surface. Start by layering a handful of salad greens, a few slices of grilled chicken, avocado, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Drizzle with a little of the prepared dressing.
Roll the wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you roll, to encase the filling securely.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining wraps.
Serve the wraps immediately or wrap them in parchment for an easy on-the-go meal.
