Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2–3 breasts)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- For the Creamy Herb Dressing:
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Vegetable Fixings:
- 8 large romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 medium cucumber, sliced into half-moons
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- Wrap Base:
- 4 whole wheat tortillas (8-10″ in diameter)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: Pat the chicken dry. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture evenly onto both sides of the chicken breasts. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
- Make the Dressing: In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, parsley, dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt. Stir until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Assemble Wraps: Warm tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave. Layer each with 2 lettuce leaves, sliced chicken, cucumber slices, tomato halves, and 2 tablespoons of dressing. Roll tightly and serve immediately.
Notes
- Swap fresh herbs for dried (adjust by 1/4 tsp for dill/parsley).
- Swap chicken with grilled shrimp or roasted chickpeas for variation.
- Double dressing as a side dip.
