Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces whole wheat wrap tortillas
- 0.5 cup hummus
- 1 medium cucumber, sliced
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 0.25 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well with the marinade. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
While the chicken is resting, prepare the vegetables: slice the cucumber, dice the tomato, and thinly slice the red onion.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the chopped parsley to create a simple yogurt sauce.
Lay out the whole wheat wrap tortillas. Spread a layer of hummus on each tortilla, then place the sliced chicken strips, cucumber, tomato, and red onion. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the yogurt sauce over the filling, then fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll up to form a wrap.
Serve immediately or wrap in foil for a convenient on-the-go meal.
