Mediterranean food is my absolute favorite. We make wraps at home pretty often. Chicken wraps, beef or vegetarian with falafel and tahina sauce. This time I am sharing with you the Greek version of my chicken wrap. You can make more for next day’s lunch or later snack. It’s definitely gets soggier but still very delicious.

Ingredients

  • For the chicken
  • 2 lbs. of chicken breast, sliced thinly in 1-2 inch strips

  • 2 tbsp. olive oil

  • 1 1/2 tsp of sea salt

  • 1 tsp. of dried basil

  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

  • 1 tbsp. garlic powder

  • 1 tbsp. 7 spice blend

  • 1 tsp. marjoram

  • 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon

  • 1 tsp of black pepper

  • 1 tsp. of thyme

  • 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar

  • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

  • For the yogurt sauce
  • 1 cup of Greek yogurt

  • 1 lemon juice

  • 2 tbsp. of olive oil

  • 1 tsp. sea salt

  • 4-5 large garlic cloves

  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper

  • 1/2 cup of chopped parsley

  • 1 tbsp. of dried mint

  • For the serving
  • 6 pita bread

  • 1/2 iceberg lettuce

  • 1 tomato

  • 1/4 of red onion

Let’s make it

  • For the best results I use a cast iron skillet. Preheat the skillet to a smoking point and add chicken. Even it out and cook untouched for 5-6 min until you get a nice char. Then add the spices and cook until it’s done, for another 5-6 min. Add garlic, vinegar and cook for another 2-3 min.
  • While chicken is cooking let’s make sauce. Place all the ingredients in a small food processor and pulse it until it’s smooth.
  • Let’s assemble. Place 2 aluminum foil sheets overlapping and place pita in a middle. Add generous amount of sauce, lettuce, onions and tomatoes.
  • Add generous amount of meat and drizzle more sauce on the top. then fold it making a wrap.
  • Then wrap tightly from 1 side.
  • Fold tightly back in.
  • Finally fold tightly the other side.
  • Place in the preheated to 350 F indoor press grill and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve immediately with more of yogurt sauce on the side.
  • Enjoy!
