Start by preparing the chicken. Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and cut them into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine 1.5 tablespoons of curry powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.
Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the spice mixture.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and lightly browned. Stir frequently to ensure even cooking.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing together 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of honey in a small bowl. Set aside.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes each side or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 15 seconds.
To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a generous spoonful of the yogurt sauce over the tortilla.
Place a quarter of the cooked chicken onto the center of the tortilla.
Top with sliced red bell pepper, cucumber, baby spinach, red onion, and chopped cilantro.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
