Ingredients for this Mediterranean Chicken Wrap

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 large whole-wheat wraps or pita
1/2 cup hummus
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
2 ripe tomatoes, diced
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 handful mixed greens or arugula

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken on a plate and brush or toss with the marinade. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to soak up the flavors.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 6–7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let the meat rest for a couple of minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
Warm the wraps in a dry pan for about 20–30 seconds on each side, or until they’re pliable.
Spread a generous tablespoon of hummus onto each wrap. Layer with greens, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, feta, and the sliced chicken. Top with a few extra crumbles of feta if you like.
Roll tightly, fold in the sides, and slice in half on a slight diagonal. Serve immediately, or wrap tightly for a grab-and-go lunch.

Frequently asked questions

1. Can I prepare this ahead for lunches?

Absolutely. Chop the veggies and cook the chicken the day before. Store components separately in the fridge. When you’re ready to eat, re-warm the chicken and wrap it up with hummus and veggies. The wrap will stay fresh for a day or two if kept tightly wrapped.

2. What if I don’t have feta?

Feta adds a salty tang, but you can substitute crumbled goat cheese or a sprinkle of grated parm. If you want to keep it dairy-free, skip the cheese and add extra cucumber with a squeeze of lemon for brightness.

3. Can I freeze this?

It’s best to assemble fresh, but you can freeze cooked chicken slices for later. Freeze the chicken separately, and assemble wraps with fresh veggies when you’re ready to eat. The texture of the wrap may be a bit softer after freezing, so prefer using fresh wraps for the best bite.
