- 1 lb halal ground chicken
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 4 large tortillas or wraps

- Add the ground chicken, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Break the chicken into small pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula as it cooks.
- Continue cooking for 7–10 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and completely cooked. Ground chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- To prepare the hot honey feta cream, add the Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup crumbled feta, honey, and red pepper flakes to a small bowl. Mash and stir until creamy and well combined. For an extra-smooth sauce, blend the ingredients briefly.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the red pepper flakes according to your preferred heat level.
- Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and flexible.
- Assemble each Mediterranean Ground Chicken Wrap with the seasoned chicken, mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and remaining crumbled feta.
- Spoon or drizzle the hot honey feta cream generously over the filling.
- Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap. Serve immediately while the chicken is warm and the vegetables are crisp.
Notes
You can replace mixed greens with shredded romaine lettuce, baby spinach, or arugula.
For extra Mediterranean flavor, add sliced olives, chopped parsley, red onion, roasted red peppers, or a squeeze of fresh lemon.
Pita or flatbread can replace tortillas if preferred. You can also skip the bread entirely and serve the chicken and toppings over greens or rice for a Mediterranean chicken bowl.
