Ingredients:

For the Grilled Chicken:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wrap:

  • 4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas
  • 1 cup baby spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup diced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup sliced Kalamata olives
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

For the Tzatziki Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup grated cucumber, squeezed to remove excess moisture
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Marinate and Grill the Chicken:

    • In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
    • Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and coat them well. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
    • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  2. Prepare the Tzatziki Sauce:

    • In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine. Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
  3. Assemble the Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Wrap:

    • Warm the tortillas slightly, either in a dry skillet or microwave, for about 10-15 seconds.
    • Lay out each tortilla and spread a generous spoonful of tzatziki sauce in the center.
    • Layer on a handful of baby spinach leaves, followed by slices of grilled chicken.
    • Sprinkle diced cucumber, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese on top.
  4. Roll and Serve:

    • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom, creating a wrap.
    • Secure the wrap with parchment paper or foil, if needed, and slice it diagonally in the middle.
    • Serve immediately, and enjoy your Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Wrap!
  5. Optional:

    Serve with a side of hummus and pita chips for an extra touch of Mediterranean delight.
