Begin by preparing the chicken. Cut the chicken breast into thin strips.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Once the skillet is hot, add the seasoned chicken strips and cook for approximately 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and golden brown. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the vegetables: slice the red bell pepper and cucumber into thin strips, and grate the carrot.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Lay out the whole grain tortillas on a clean surface. Spread about 30 grams of hummus evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border at the edges.
Place an even layer of spinach leaves on top of the hummus on each wrap.
Distribute the cooked chicken strips evenly onto each tortilla, followed by the sliced red bell pepper, cucumber, and grated carrot.
Carefully fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap.
Cut each wrap in half, if desired, and serve immediately.
