Begin by preparing the chicken. Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly over the chicken breasts and let them sit for about 10 minutes.
Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is fully cooked and grill marks appear.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly.
Lay out the gluten-free wraps on a flat surface. Spread a spoonful of hummus over each wrap.
Place a lettuce leaf over the hummus layer. Arrange a portion of sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and red onion on top of the lettuce.
Optionally, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the fillings for extra flavor.
Fold the sides of the wrap inward, and then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the fillings.
Slice the wraps in half, if desired, and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors.
