Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced red bell pepper and zucchini. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until they start to soften.
Lower the heat to medium and return the chicken to the skillet.
Add the baby spinach, stirring until it just begins to wilt.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt with the residual heat.
In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt and lemon juice to make a tangy sauce.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a microwave or a clean, dry skillet until soft.
Evenly divide the chicken and veggie mixture among the tortillas.
Drizzle some of the Greek yogurt sauce over the filling.
Wrap each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you roll them up.
Serve the wraps immediately, while warm and enjoy!
