Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 mini whole-wheat wraps
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium cucumber
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 2 cups spinach
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 0.25 cup feta cheese
Instructions
Start by marinating the chicken breast. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips, add them to the marinade, and toss to coat evenly. Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Dice the red bell pepper and cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.
While the chicken is cooking, make the yogurt sauce by combining 0.5 cup of plain Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh dill.
Warm the mini whole-wheat wraps in a skillet for about 1 minute per side or until pliable.
Assemble the wraps by spreading a spoonful of the yogurt sauce on each wrap. Top with a handful of spinach, a few strips of grilled chicken, and an assortment of the chopped vegetables.
Sprinkle some feta cheese over the top and wrap tightly. Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Mini Chicken and Veggie Wraps.
