Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 medium cucumber, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 whole wheat wraps
- 4 pieces romaine lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
Instructions
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and coat well. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
Preheat a grill or a skillet on medium-high heat.
Cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and nicely charred.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with chopped dill to make the yogurt sauce.
Lay out the whole wheat wraps and spread a generous amount of yogurt sauce over each one.
Place a romaine lettuce leaf on each wrap.
Top with slices of grilled chicken, diced cucumber, cherry tomato halves, red onion slices, and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
Roll the wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you roll.
Serve the wraps immediately, or wrap them in foil for an on-the-go meal.
