Start by preparing the vegetables. Slice the red bell pepper and zucchini into thin strips, and thinly slice the red onion.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion. Add olive oil, salt, black pepper, and cumin powder. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated.
Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned vegetables to the pan and grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are slightly softened and have grill marks. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the vegetarian chicken strips and grill according to the package instructions, typically about 5 minutes, until heated through and slightly golden brown.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas either in a microwave for 30 seconds or directly on the grill pan for about 10-15 seconds per side.
To assemble the wraps, spread a generous amount of hummus over each tortilla. Distribute the grilled vegetables and vegetarian chicken strips evenly across the four tortillas.
Top with fresh arugula and drizzle a little lemon juice over each wrap for added flavor.
Carefully fold the bottom edge of each tortilla over the filling, then fold in the sides and continue to roll until you have a neat wrap.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vegetarian grilled chicken and veggie wraps!
