Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 pieces Whole wheat flatbreads
• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 medium, diced Cucumber
• 2 medium, diced Tomatoes
• 1 small, thinly sliced Red onion
• 0.5 cup crumbs Feta cheese
• 8 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh dill

Directions

Step 1

Start by marinating the chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and lemon juice.

Step 2

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat the chicken evenly and let it sit for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken marinates, prepare the yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of lemon juice and half of the fresh dill. Stir well and set aside.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 6-7 minutes each side or until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 5

Prepare the vegetables: Dice the cucumber and tomatoes, slice the red onion thinly, and crumble the feta cheese.

Step 6

To assemble the wrap, lay a flatbread on a clean surface. Spread 2 tablespoons of the yogurt sauce over the center of the flatbread.

Step 7

Place two lettuce leaves, a few pieces of cooked chicken, diced cucumber, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese in the center of the wrap.

Step 8

Sprinkle with the remaining dill for extra flavor.

Step 9

Fold the sides of the flatbread over the filling and roll tightly to form a wrap. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Step 10

Serve immediately or wrap in foil to enjoy later. The wraps can be served warm or at room temperature.
