Ingredients

• Chicken:
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
• Tzatziki Sauce:
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cucumber, grated and drained
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
• Wrap Components:
  • 4 large flatbreads or whole wheat wraps
  • 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 oz (about 115 g) feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup lettuce or baby spinach leaves

Instructions

1. Marinate the chicken

In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and marinate for 15 minutes (or longer if desired).

2. Prepare the tzatziki sauce

While chicken marinates, make the tzatziki: In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir well and refrigerate.

3. Cook the chicken

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Let rest for 3 minutes, then slice thinly.

4. Warm the flatbreads

Warm the flatbreads lightly in a pan or microwave.

5. Assemble the wraps

To assemble each wrap, spread tzatziki over the bread, add lettuce/spinach, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, grilled chicken, and top with crumbled feta.

6. Serve

Fold up the wraps, securing with parchment or foil if needed. Serve immediately.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Für einen besonders würzigen Geschmack kann eine Prise Cayennepfeffer zur Hähnchenmarinade gegeben werden. Achten Sie darauf, dass die Gurke für die Tzatziki gut ausgedrückt wird, damit die Sauce schön cremig bleibt. Wer möchte, kann die Fladenbrote kurz auf dem Grill anrösten.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Für eine vegetarische Variante lässt sich das Hähnchen durch gegrillten Halloumi ersetzen. Wer weniger Kohlenhydrate möchte, kann die Wraps auch als Bowl mit denselben Zutaten servieren. Die Tzatziki-Sauce kann ganz nach Geschmack mit zusätzlichem Knoblauch oder Kräutern abgeschmeckt werden.

Serviervorschläge

Die Tzatziki Chicken Wraps schmecken hervorragend mit einem knackigen Salat und einem Glas kühlem Sauvignon Blanc. Auch als Picknick-Snack oder Meal Prep für unterwegs eignen sie sich bestens. Servieren Sie dazu gern ein paar Oliven oder knusprige Kartoffelspalten für ein rundes mediterranes Erlebnis.
