Ingredients

• 400 grams chicken breast
• 200 grams Greek yogurt, plain
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 units garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 units whole wheat flatbreads
• 1 unit cucumber, sliced
• 1 unit red onion, thinly sliced
• 150 grams cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.25 cup fresh mint leaves
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 100 grams baby spinach leaves

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together 150 grams plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Add the chicken strips to the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill each side for about 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked and nicely charred.

Step 6

While the chicken cooks, prepare the yogurt sauce by whisking together the remaining 50 grams of Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.

Step 7

Warm the whole wheat flatbreads on the grill for about 1 minute on each side.

Step 8

To assemble the wrap, lay a flatbread on a plate. Spread a spoonful of yogurt sauce over it, add a few grilled chicken slices, then top with cucumber slices, red onion, cherry tomatoes, mint leaves, parsley, and spinach leaves.

Step 9

Wrap the flatbread tightly, tucking in the sides as you roll.

Step 10

Repeat the process for the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Chicken Tikka Wraps.
