Ingredients
1 lb chicken breast, sliced into strips
1 cup classic or roasted red pepper hummus
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup red onion, diced
1 cup cucumber, sliced (seeds removed)
2 cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Mediterranean spice blend (Za’atar or sumac)
Salt and pepper to taste
4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season chicken breast strips with minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Mediterranean herbs.
Sear the chicken in the skillet for 6 to 8 minutes per side until fully cooked reaching 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and allow it to rest for five minutes before slicing into thinner strips if necessary.
Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface or cutting board.
Spread a generous, even layer of hummus across the center of each individual tortilla.
Distribute the sliced chicken, red onions, cucumber, spinach, and feta cheese evenly across the hummus base on each wrap.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward toward the filling.
Roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom upward to secure the ingredients inside.
Notes
Store the chicken and vegetables in separate airtight containers and assemble the wraps fresh each morning to maintain the best texture. If prepping for multiple days, keep the hummus and chicken chilled and use fresh spinach daily to prevent wilting. You can substitute chicken thighs for extra juiciness or use goat cheese instead of feta.
