Begin by preparing the marinade for the chicken. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion into thin strips.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables and grill them for about 3-5 minutes, or until tender and charred. Remove from the grill and set aside.
On the same grill, cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
To assemble the wraps, lay the large lettuce leaves on a clean surface. Place a few slices of grilled chicken, grilled vegetables, avocado, and tomato onto each leaf. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaves over the filling and roll them tightly to form a wrap.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb grilled chicken and veggie wraps!
