Ingredients

For the roasted red pepper hummus:

  • 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas (you can peel them if you have time, to make the hummus extra creamy)
  • 2 medium roasted red peppers , peeled (I use peppers from a jar)
  • 1-2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt or more to taste

For the sauteed mushrooms:

  • 6 medium white button mushrooms , sliced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1-2 small garlic cloves , pressed
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped dill

For the chicken:

  • 2 (6-8 oz) chicken breasts cut into cubes
  • juice from ½ lemon
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1-2 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 small cloves garlic - chopped (might reduce it to 1 clove)
  • ½ tsp dried parsley

Other ingredients for the wrap:

  • cucumbers cut into strips
  • chopped lettuce
  • crumbled feta cheese
  • flatbread like Flatout

Instructions

For the roasted red pepper hummus:

  • Place all ingredients in a food processor/blender. Pulse a few times until smooth.
  • Transfer to a bowl. Garnish with toasted nuts of your choice.

For the mushrooms:

  • In a medium skillet combine butter, garlic and mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, stirring a few times. Reduce heat to medium-low and add salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 more minutes, stirring a few times, until mushrooms are softened and browned. Remove from heat and add dill.

For the chicken:

  • Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl and add meat, make sure it is evenly coated in marinade. Transfer to a zip lock bag. Let the meat marinate for at least 30 minutes, for best results 6 hours to overnight. Keep it in the fridge.
  • Heat a ribbed skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil. Cook chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until done. Transfer to a plate.

For the wraps:

  • Spread 2 tbsp hummus over flatbread.Add some feta cheese, lettuce, cucumber, mushrooms and chicken. Wrap like a burrito and cut in half. Serve.
