Quick to prepare and easy to assemble, these kebab wraps are a satisfying lunch or dinner option for the whole family—perfect for enjoying warm or on the go.
Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips approximately 1 cm wide.
In a large mixing bowl, combine low-fat yogurt, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, ground coriander, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix well.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors. Overnight marination is ideal if time permits.
Spray a non-stick pan with olive oil spray and heat over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, add the marinated chicken strips, a few at a time, without overcrowding. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a slightly charred exterior.
Warm the whole wheat wraps briefly in a dry pan or microwave to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay a warm whole wheat wrap on a flat surface. Place a portion of shredded lettuce in the center, followed by a few slices of tomato, cucumber, and red onion.
Add a generous portion of the cooked chicken strips on top of the vegetables.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before wrapping tightly.
Repeat the assembly for the remaining wraps. Serve immediately while warm, or wrap in foil to keep them warm for later consumption.
