Healthy Mediterranean Chicken Wrap Recipe
This Mediterranean chicken, mushroom, and spinach wrap is filled with tender chicken, sautéed mushrooms, fresh spinach, and crumbled feta cheese, all wrapped in a soft tortilla. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (parsley or basil) for garnish
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Dice the chicken breasts, slice the mushrooms, and chop the spinach.
- Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, sautéing until the mushrooms are tender and golden, about 5 minutes.
- Add Spinach: Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the chicken, mushroom, and spinach mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
- Wrap and Serve: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Slice in half and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
