Description
A bright, crunchy chicken wrap packed with Greek yogurt tang, pickled red onions, and fresh veggies, perfect for summer lunches.
Ingredients
- Large flour tortillas (8–10 inch)
- Cooked chicken breast or thighs (2 cups shredded)
- Greek yogurt (1/2 cup)
- Mayonnaise (2 tbsp)
- Dijon mustard (1 tsp)
- Garlic (1 small clove, minced)
- Lemon juice (1 tbsp)
- Cucumber (1 medium, thinly sliced)
- Pickled red onions (1/2 cup)
- Shredded lettuce or mixed greens (2 cups)
- Cherry tomatoes (1/2 cup, halved)
- Feta or crumbly goat cheese (1/3 cup, crumbled)
- Fresh herbs: cilantro, parsley, or mint (2 tbsp chopped)
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil (1 tbsp)
- Optional heat: hot sauce or sliced jalapeño
Instructions
- Prep the chicken: If starting with raw chicken, roast or poach seasoned chicken until it reaches 165°F, then shred. If using rotisserie, shred and move on.
- Make the dressing: Whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Quick toss: Combine shredded chicken with half the dressing. Reserve the other half to drizzle on the tortilla.
- Prepare the vegetables: Thinly slice cucumber, halve cherry tomatoes, rinse and dry greens, and chop herbs.
- Warm the tortillas: Heat each tortilla in a skillet for 10–20 seconds per side.
- Assemble: Lay a tortilla flat, spread reserved dressing, then add greens, coated chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, pickled onions, and cheese.
- Roll and secure: Fold sides in, roll tightly, and toast seam-side down in the skillet.
- Store: Keep chicken and dressing separate from vegetables if prepping ahead.
Notes
Experiment with different fillings and sauces for variety. Warm tortillas are key to prevent cracking.
