Prep the Chicken

Cook the chicken by grilling or poaching. If grilling, preheat to medium heat, season with salt, pepper, and olive oil, and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. If poaching, simmer in water with aromatics for about 15 minutes. Let rest before slicing.

Prepare the Vegetables

Dice cucumbers, chop bell peppers, and finely slice green onions. Optionally add shredded carrots for extra texture.

Mix the Dressing

In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth.

Toss It All Together

Add the diced chicken and chopped vegetables to the bowl with the dressing. Gently fold everything together until coated.

Wrap It Up

Lay out tortillas and spoon the mixture onto each. Wrap tightly and serve.

Notes

This chicken salad wrap is versatile and can be enjoyed as a quick lunch or dressed up for dinner.
