Start by preparing the chicken. Season the chicken breast with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper evenly on both sides.
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken breast for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Let it rest for about 5 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
While the chicken is cooking, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth.
Mix the mashed avocado with Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped cilantro to create a creamy, flavorful spread.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a pan or microwave until they're pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay a large lettuce leaf on each tortilla. Spread a generous tablespoon of the avocado mixture on the lettuce.
Top the avocado spread with slices of cooked chicken and red onion.
Roll the tortilla tightly, starting from one end and tucking in the sides as you go.
Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately.
