Yield Makes 6-8 wraps

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

1/2 a cucumber
200g tomatoes
1/2 iceberg lettuce
1 red onion
6-8 tortilla wraps/ flatbreads / thin pittas - i prefer tortillas
homemade/pre-made tzatziki
1/2 a cucumber
200g tomatoes
1/2 iceberg lettuce
1 red onion
6-8 tortilla wraps/ flatbreads / thin pittas - i prefer tortillas
homemade/pre-made tzatziki
3 tbsp Olive Oil
3 tbsp Lemon Juice
3 Garlic Cloves (minced/finely chopped)
1 tbsp oregano
1 tsp salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
6-8 Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs

Steps:

Prepare the Chicken Marinade first. Get a large bowl. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Add the Chicken Thighs and give it a mix with your hands. Make sure you get into all the nooks and crannies. Add more oregano if necessary. Leave for 30ish minutes.
Prepare wrap ingredients. Slice tomatoes, slice cucumber into half moon shapes, THINLY slice onions and slice the lettuce.
Add the marinated chicken to a medium-heat skillet or frying pan for 5-7 minutes. Cook in 2 batches to avoid over crowding the pan (this should allow it to brown nicely). Once nicely browned and cooked through leave to rest on a chopping board for 5 minutes before slicing.
Build the wraps. Toast the flatbread or tortilla on a frying pan. I place a tortilla directly onto the gas as this gives a nice charred flavour. You may prefer to heat in frying pan.
Build the wraps - tortilla/flatbreat, then lettuce, onion, cucumber, tomatoes.and tzatziki. Be careful not to over fill, just a little of each is best. Slice the rested chicken and add to the wrap. And enjoy!
To wrap the tortilla properly, first fold up from the bottom, the fold the two adjacent sides over.

Time 5m

Yield 1 wrap, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 tortilla (10-inch whatever type you like)
2 -3 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes (the oil-packed type, easier if you can find pre-sliced)
1 -2 tablespoon kalamata olive (pitted and sliced)
1 tablespoon light cream cheese with roasted garlic
3 tablespoons roasted red peppers (the sliced kind in a jar)
1/4 cup cucumber (about 1/6 of a long english, cut in strips)
10 spinach leaves
2 tablespoons reduced-fat feta cheese

Steps:

spread the cream cheese on the tortilla in a line, leave some room at one end and use it to stick the olives and feta to it, pile everything else on top of your line.
fold the end with nothing on it in, one side of the line over top, and roll up.

Tips:

Choose high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the taste of your wraps. Use fresh, flavorful vegetables, good-quality cheese, and lean protein.
Don't overstuff your wraps: It's better to make two smaller wraps than one large wrap that's difficult to eat. Plus, overstuffed wraps are more likely to fall apart.
Use a variety of colors and textures: This will make your wraps more visually appealing and interesting to eat. Try using different types of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and bell peppers.
Add a flavorful dressing: A simple vinaigrette or tzatziki sauce can really elevate the flavor of your wraps. You can also try using hummus or pesto.
Grill or pan-fry your wraps: This will give them a nice crispy exterior and help to seal in the flavors.
