Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium cucumber, julienned
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 pieces whole grain wraps
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and curry powder, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet, cooking until browned and cooked through, approximately 8-10 minutes.
Add the diced tomato and sliced red bell pepper to the skillet, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the lemon juice to create a tangy dressing.
Warm the whole grain wraps according to package instructions.
Assemble each wrap by spreading a layer of the yogurt dressing, followed by the curry chicken mixture. Top with fresh cucumber slices and chopped cilantro.
Roll up the wraps tightly, securing with a toothpick if necessary, and serve immediately.
