Ingredients

For the Chicken Salad

• 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (grilled or rotisserie works great!)
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup cucumber, finely diced
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
• 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried dill)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• Juice of 1 lemon
• Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Tzatziki Sauce

• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup cucumber, grated and drained
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• Salt, to taste

For Assembly

• 4 large whole wheat or spinach wraps
• Extra lettuce leaves (optional)
• Feta cheese, crumbled (optional for extra flavor)

Instructions

1. Make the Tzatziki Sauce:
   • In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, olive oil, dill, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Set aside in the fridge to chill while preparing the chicken salad.

🥒 Drain the grated cucumber by placing it in a clean kitchen towel and squeezing out excess moisture. This ensures your tzatziki doesn’t become watery!

2. Prepare the Chicken Salad:
   • In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, olives, dill, parsley, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

🍋 This chicken salad can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for a couple of hours or even overnight to let the flavors meld beautifully.

3. Assemble the Wraps:
   • Lay a wrap flat on a clean surface. If using, place a lettuce leaf down over the wrap to add crunch.
   • Spoon a generous amount of the chicken salad mixture onto the center of the wrap.
   • Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese if desired.
   • Fold in the sides and roll up tightly from the bottom to create a wrap.

🌯 To keep the wrap intact, you can secure it with a toothpick or wrap it in parchment paper.

4. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Cut the wraps in half and serve with extra tzatziki sauce on the side for dipping.

Variations

• Spicy Kick: Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken salad for an extra kick! 🌶️
• Vegetarian Option: Replace chicken with chickpeas or roasted vegetables for a delicious vegetarian wrap.
• Mediterranean Grain Bowl: Serve the chicken salad over a bed of quinoa or couscous instead of in a wrap for a different presentation! 🍚

These wraps are sure to impress whether you're serving them at a picnic, a family gathering, or just a cozy meal at home. Enjoy the delightful taste of Greece in each bite! 🥳🇬🇷
