Ingredients

For the Chicken

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp lemon juice

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Roasted Vegetables

1 zucchini, sliced

1 red bell pepper, sliced

½ red onion, sliced

1–2 tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Wraps & Assembly

4 large whole wheat or regular tortillas/wraps

¼–½ cup tzatziki sauce or garlic yogurt sauce

¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Add chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Roast the Vegetables

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Toss zucchini, bell pepper, and onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15–20 minutes, until tender and slightly caramelized.

Tips & Variations

Chicken Options: Use boneless, skinless thighs for juicier meat or pre-cooked rotisserie chicken for a shortcut.

Vegetable Variations: Add bell peppers of other colors, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, or eggplant for more variety.

Wrap Alternatives: Use whole wheat tortillas, lavash, pita, or even a large lettuce leaf for a low-carb option.

Cheese Choices: Feta is classic, but halloumi or goat cheese can be a tasty alternative.

Sauce Variations: Substitute tzatziki with hummus, garlic yogurt sauce, or a drizzle of lemon-olive oil vinaigrette.

Meal Prep Friendly: Keep the chicken, roasted vegetables, and tortillas separate. Assemble wraps just before eating to prevent sogginess.

Add Crunch: Include thinly sliced cucumbers or radishes for extra crunch.

Extra Flavor: Sprinkle with smoked paprika, sumac, or za’atar for a Mediterranean twist.

Q&A

Q: Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
A: Yes. Prepare the chicken and roasted vegetables in advance and store separately. Assemble the wraps just before eating to prevent the tortillas from getting soggy.

Q: Can I use frozen chicken?
A: Yes. Thaw completely and pat dry before marinating and cooking to ensure even cooking.

Q: Can I make this vegetarian?
A: Replace chicken with grilled halloumi, roasted chickpeas, or a mix of beans and vegetables for a vegetarian-friendly wrap.

Q: Can I freeze these wraps?
A: It’s best to freeze the components (chicken and vegetables) separately. Assemble the wrap fresh when ready to eat, as tortillas can become soggy when frozen.

Q: Can I add more veggies or greens?
A: Absolutely. Spinach, arugula, shredded lettuce, or thinly sliced cucumbers work well.
