Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
- 0.5 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Diced cucumber
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh dill
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, combine Greek yogurt, diced cucumber, and dill in a small bowl to make the sauce. Mix well and set aside.
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
Thread the chicken onto skewers, and grill for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has grill marks.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas on the grill or in a dry pan for about 30 seconds on each side.
To assemble the wraps, spread a tablespoon of the yogurt sauce onto each tortilla.
Add grilled chicken from the skewers, cherry tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and red onion slices.
Roll the tortillas tightly to enclose the fillings. Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy meal!
