Ingredients

Scale

2 medium skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 12 ounces total)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 whole wheat tortillas (8-inch diameter)
1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
Brush the chicken breasts evenly with the spice mixture on both sides.
Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.
While the chicken rests, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the non-fat Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl until smooth.
Slice the rested chicken breasts into thin strips.
Lay out each whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the yogurt sauce evenly over each tortilla.
Divide the shredded romaine lettuce, tomato slices, cucumber slices, and shredded carrot evenly among the tortillas.
Top the vegetables with the sliced chicken strips.
Roll up each tortilla tightly to form a wrap.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
