Ingredients:

For the chicken filling:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For serving:

  • Large lettuce leaves (such as romaine or butter lettuce)
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Sliced cucumbers
  • Kalamata olives (optional)
  • Crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced chicken breast, Greek yogurt, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, fresh dill, fresh parsley, and lemon juice.


  2. Mix everything together until the ingredients are well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The Greek yogurt will provide creaminess and tanginess to the filling.

  4. Spoon the Greek yogurt chicken mixture onto each lettuce leaf.


  5. Add some sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese on top of the chicken filling if desired. These toppings add extra flavor and texture to the wraps.


  6. Roll up the lettuce leaves, enclosing the filling like a burrito or taco.
