Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced for chicken
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes optional
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced for sauce
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt for sauce
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper for sauce
  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese optional

Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • large skillet
  • small bowl
  • whisk
  • Measuring spoons
  • Measuring cups
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • spatula
  • Tortilla warmer (optional)

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
  3. Make the Garlic Sauce: While the chicken is cooking, prepare the garlic sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Warm the Tortillas: Warm the tortillas according to package directions. This makes them more pliable and less likely to tear. You can microwave them briefly, heat them in a dry skillet, or use a tortilla warmer.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of garlic sauce over the tortilla, leaving a small border. Add a layer of shredded lettuce, followed by shredded carrots, red onion, and diced tomatoes. Top with the cooked garlic chicken. Sprinkle with feta cheese, if desired.
  6. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll it up from the bottom.
  7. Serve: Cut the wrap in half, if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Use fresh garlic for the best flavor. Warm tortillas are more pliable and less likely to tear. Don't overfill the wraps to prevent tearing. These wraps are best enjoyed fresh; if making ahead, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator.
