Instructions
Creating Mediterranean Chicken Wraps can be straightforward by following these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Ensure the chicken is coated evenly.
2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
3. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
4. Prepare the Wraps: Warm the tortillas or wraps in a dry skillet for about 1 minute per side to make them pliable.
5. Build the Wraps: Start by laying down a tortilla on a flat surface. Add a layer of shredded lettuce, followed by sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and a sprinkle of feta cheese.
6. Add Chicken: Top the veggies with sliced chicken, ensuring each wrap is nicely filled.
7. Sauce It Up: Drizzle tzatziki sauce or hummus over the chicken or add a dollop inside the wrap for extra creaminess.
8. Wrap It Up: Starting from the bottom, roll up the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to create a secure wrap.
9. Serve: Slice the wraps in half, if desired, and serve immediately.
