These Mediterranean chicken wraps can be made in 30 minutes using a single pan for the chicken while you chop salad and mix the sauce․ They are a good option for a quick weeknight meal․ Ingredients in the chicken wraps include spicy chicken‚ cool yogurt sauce and hummus‚ and other vegetables rolled up in a warmed tortilla․ They provide enough food for dinner with little cleanup․
The yogurt sauce can be made ahead of time along with other salad ingredients․ I like the flavor combination of the yogurt sauce and chili powder․ Other salad ingredients can be made ahead of time․ The salad can be assembled after the chicken is cooked․ Hummus can be bought or made as needed․ This recipe may be a time-saving option for other weeknights․ Garlic is an ingredient in both the yogurt sauce and chicken․ Garlic flavor will be included in the wrap․
Supply filling ingredients and let customers make their own burritos using as many ingredients as they want․ Serve burritos hot with the chicken․ To keep salad ingredients from spilling out of burritos‚ fill the center of the tortilla but leave space on both sides when making burritos․ Consider providing a plate or other surface for customers to use when making their own burritos‚ especially if they're being served whole tortillas‚ to contain falling salad ingredients․
I don't call these Greek wraps or shawarmas․ I call them somewhere in between wraps and shawarmas‚ with convenient yogurt sauce and home-prepared toppings for an everyday meal․
