Ingredients
  

For the Wraps:

  • 0.5 tsp Cumin
  • 0.5 tsp Paprika or Chili Powder
  • 0.5 tsp Garlic or Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Canola, Corn, Vegetable, or Olive Oil
  • 2 medium Flour Tortilla Wraps
  • 2 tbsp Hummus
  • 1 cup Romaine Lettuce chopped
  • 1 small Tomato sliced
  • 1/4 small Red Onion sliced
  • 1 tbsp Feta Cheese optional

Equipment

  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Pan
  • Spatula
  • Small bowl

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by selecting your chicken—either 2 thighs or 1 breast. If you’re using thighs, consider deboning them for ease. Rinse the chicken under cold water, pat it dry, and place it on a cutting board.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, paprika or chili powder, garlic or onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated.
  3. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. If you have a meat thermometer, the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
  4. While the chicken is resting, lay out your flour tortillas. Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus on each tortilla, making sure to cover it evenly.
  5. Layer the chopped romaine lettuce, sliced tomato, and red onion on top of the hummus. If you’re using feta cheese, sprinkle it over the veggies for an added burst of flavor.
  6. Once the chicken has rested and is sliced, layer it on top of the veggies. You can choose to add more hummus here if you like it extra creamy.
  7. Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. If you're feeling adventurous, you can secure it with a toothpick or wrap it in parchment paper for easy handling.
  8. Slice the wrap in half if desired, and serve immediately. These Hummus and Chicken Wraps are excellent as a quick lunch, a picnic treat, or a light dinner option.

Notes

  • Don't overcook the chicken to avoid dryness; use a meat thermometer.
  • Let the chicken rest before slicing to retain juices.
  • Customize the veggies to your preference for extra crunch.
  • Try different hummus flavors to enhance the wrap.
  • Store leftovers in airtight containers for easy reheating.
