Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Whole-grain wraps
• 2 cups Romaine lettuce, shredded
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup Cucumber, sliced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
• 0.5 cup Hummus

Directions

Step 1

Begin by marinating the chicken. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it rest for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill each piece for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 5

Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

Step 6

While the chicken is resting, prepare the wrap fillings. Lay out the whole-grain wraps and spread a layer of hummus on each one.

Step 7

Divide the shredded romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese evenly among the wraps.

Step 8

Top with the sliced grilled chicken.

Step 9

Wrap tightly by folding in the sides and then rolling from the bottom up.

Step 10

Cut each wrap in half and secure with a toothpick if necessary.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy Mediterranean chicken wrap!
