Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 cup Cucumber, diced
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 pieces Low-carb wraps
• 0.25 cup Tahini sauce
• 1 cup Baby spinach leaves

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and minced garlic to make the marinade.

Step 2

Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 4

Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice char.

Step 5

While the chicken is baking, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of parsley. Set aside.

Step 6

Prepare the salad filling by combining cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and remaining parsley in a bowl. Toss lightly.

Step 7

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

Step 8

To assemble the wraps, lay out a low-carb wrap and spread a spoonful of tahini sauce over it. Add a few spinach leaves, a generous helping of the salad filling, slices of chicken, and a dollop of yogurt sauce.

Step 9

Wrap tightly and serve immediately, while warm.
