Ingredients
- 400 grams Seitan
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Greek-style flatbreads
- 1 cup Cucumber, diced
- 1 cup Tomato, diced
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt

Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to make the marinade.
Cut the seitan into bite-sized cubes and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the seitan is marinating, prepare the tzatziki sauce. In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, chopped dill, lemon zest, one tablespoon of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper. Stir until well combined, then set aside.
Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated seitan onto skewers and grill each side for about 3-4 minutes or until slightly charred and heated through.
Warm the Greek-style flatbreads on the grill or in a dry skillet for about a minute on each side.
To assemble the wraps, place a lettuce leaf on each flatbread, then top with some grilled seitan cubes, diced cucumber, diced tomato, and sliced red onion.
Drizzle the prepared tzatziki sauce over the fillings.
Fold the flatbread over the fillings to create a wrap. Serve immediately for the best taste.
