Ingredients
  

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

Zest and juice of 1 large lemon

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat or spinach wraps

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 medium tomato, diced

1/2 cucumber, sliced

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Tzatziki sauce or your favorite dressing (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, making sure they're thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.

    Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

      Grill the Chicken: Once the grill is hot, remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and has nice grill marks.

        Rest & Slice: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. This will keep the juices inside. After resting, slice the chicken into thin strips.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat or spinach wraps on a clean surface. Start by placing a handful of fresh spinach leaves on each wrap. Next, add a portion of diced tomato, cucumber slices, and red onion. Top each wrap with the grilled chicken strips and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese if desired.

            Drizzle & Roll: Drizzle some tzatziki sauce or your favorite dressing over the fillings. Fold in the sides of the wrap and tightly roll it from the bottom up to enclose all the filling.

              Serve: Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for an on-the-go meal. Enjoy your refreshing and flavorful Lemon Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken Wraps!
