Begin by preparing all your vegetables: wash and dry the lettuce leaves, set them aside.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into thin strips.
Deseed and thinly slice the red bell pepper.
Cut the cucumber into matchsticks.
Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and slice it thinly.
Halve the Kalamata olives.
Lay out two large lettuce leaves per wrap, slightly overlapping them to create a stable base.
Layer the ingredients on the lettuce leaves: start with a few slices of chicken, followed by bell pepper slices, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, olive halves, and finally, fresh basil leaves.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle a small amount of the dressing over the layered ingredients on each wrap.
Carefully roll the lettuce leaves over the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to form a snug wrap.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to create more wraps.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
