Preheat a grill pan or regular pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder evenly on both sides.
Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated.
Place the chicken on the hot pan and cook for about 7-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
While the chicken is cooking, cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl.
Add the lime juice and use a fork to mash the avocados until smooth yet chunky.
Stir in the chopped cilantro and mix well.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Lay out the whole grain wraps and spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture evenly over each.
Top with sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach.
Wrap each filled wrap tightly and slice in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the heart-healthy meal.
