      INSTRUCTIONS

      Marinate the Chicken:

      • In a bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
      • Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally up to 4 hours.

      Cook the Chicken:

      • Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. 
      • Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
      • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

      Prepare the Dressing:

      • In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the dressing. Set aside.

      Combine All Ingredients:

      • Combine the cooked chicken with the chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, and onions.
      • Drizzle dressing over the ingredients. 

      Assemble the Salad Wraps:

      • Take a large flour tortilla and place a few spoonfuls of the mixed ingredients.
      • Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla in towards the center, then roll it up like a burrito, securing it with a toothpick if needed.
