Simple Grilled Chicken Wrap

Simple Grilled Chicken Wrap

This grilled chicken wrap is shawarma-inspired, packed with juicy chicken, fresh veggies, and a creamy white sauce that ties it all together. The best part? It’s done in 30 minutes, tops.
You can even toss in whatever veggies you’ve got lying around or keep it classic. Either way, it’s perfect for a quick dinner or even a meal prep option for the week.
